Default Beach Bars

Hey Bangin, did you change your risers? Are they the narrow beach bars or the standard? Thanks.

I installed the Klockwerks Mentele Bars almost two years ago. No wrist issues, and I put about 100 miles on it over the weekend.

What kind of risers are you using? The ones Burly has listed don't work on a Deluxe.

Thx

[quote=TheTroupe;8203001 . . . I went with the WO518 on my Heritage . . .[/quote]

+1 on 518s. I went with them because I wanted a bit more rise than the Wild1 550 beach bars to make up for getting rid of the stock risers. Very comfortable for cruising and I have no trouble with tight turns.

Does anyone know what the stock Softail Deluxe handlebar specs? I know they are 1" and I can measure to get the length. Tried to look up the specs just haven't had any luck.

Thx

You may want to take a look at the King Menteles from Klock Werks.They are 37 inches wide and appear to have a very nice riding position.High on my list of wanted items.http://www.kustombaggers.com/

If you're having problems now, I would imagine ape hangers would only make it worse. I'd go for a deep sweep set of beach bars.
