I changed the bars on my 2000 Fatboy to mini beach bars. I like the new bars , but now the switch covers wont tighten up enough. I believe the stock Fatboy bars are 1 1/4 " while the Burly's are only 1" where the controls are. Anyone else run into this ?

 

I like the beach bars where all the girls hang out!!

 

+1 Charlie,
I love beach bars.

 

Mmmmmmm. .. Peach.

 

thanks guys that helps alot

 

They should tighten up... Make sure the wiring is not in the way. Did you internal wire them.. were the bars dimpled?

 

Sorry for being a little less than helpful.

Yes some FatBoys do in fact have 1.25in bars.

Do you have a Screaming Eagle Fatboy? Did they make one in 2000?

Are your original bars 1.0 inches at the control ends?

IS it really sloppy like it will just fall off?

 

I'm sorry, I am geneticly predispostioned to being a smart ***!



PS
hope you get your problem sorted out!

 

hspring03 might have something there. the bars are internally wired. I'm going to check , maybe the wires are in the way. They aren't sloppy , just not tight enough. No problem with the left side , only the right...... thanks guys and no problems with the jokes you guys are great !
