Default Got my bars

Well, got home from work today with a package waiting on me from Carlini with my evil apes. I just gotta call Drew and get my cables on the way...

The bars look good, but they aren't knurld or how ever you spell it for the risers...

What diameter bare they? 1.25" or 1.5"? I would see if carlini has some risers with the set screws in tehm so that they are held in place. My Carlini's are not knurled either but the set screws hold them tight. What kindof cabl;es are we going for? Magnums? Burly's? Let me know.

What finish did you go with? I went for the chrome... just got mine two days ago, received the wire extensions from Dr V-Twin today, and the cables (also from the Dr) should be here monday. Can't wait.

Post up pics ASAP guys! What height did you go with? I'm planning on going with either the 10" or 14" but would really like to see pics on a train. Glad to see someone is going to be the guinea pig.

The 1.5 risers have the set screws. No need to worry. No knurling needed.
