Default When will hd make some bars for blackline?

Just wondering if anyone had an inside scoop if HD was coming out with any different bars for blackline?

Seems like most HD stuff is pretty Hush-HusH...

Usually when it comes out for sale is when we hear about it.

Except every yr we hear the water cooled motors are coming out. a lot of people thought since 07 .

I'm 6'2" and like my bars.
I have a feeling if the blackilne had average bars on it, and the current oem ones were aftermarket, everyone would be saying cool, and buying them to be different. The blackline gets "different" bars, and no one likes them.

Why wait for HD to make bars, go aftermarket and get whatever you want...right now.

As ive found so far its still a bit hard getting new bars if you like me want to be able to tilt them forward, im waiting for rsd or actually whoever comes first with some risers and a speedo relocator.

Would try and put something togheter myself but since i dont have a car i need the bike running just about every day

If those don't suit, then you can always go aftermarket.

I was suprised that there wasn't the normal December release of any parts this year. As I recall they usually drop new parts in December and July

I hear what your sayin. I just would like some mini apes to change my ridin postion cuz i got a bad back. Leanin forward hurts my back after 2 hours ridin. The bars look awsome, just not a good fit for myself.
