Question 2011 Blackline "split drag bars" on an 07 Train?

I love to simple look of the split drag bars on the Blackline, and am very interested and curious if I could put a pair on my 07 Train. Has anyone done this on a Train, or any Fx softail? If so let me know, and post some pics. Thanks!

not without allot of mod... the blackline handlebars are keyed so that they will go down in the top tree 1 way....

I've always thought the Night Train had the best looking bars on a Softail - I put some on my old Sportster and would on my FXST if not for changing the cables and stuff. Blackline bars? I don't get it.

Me either. I'd change out the triple trees on a Blackline to use "normal" bars myself.

As was said, It not just a simple swap. You'd either need to swap out your trees for a blackline set, or remove yours and have them machined to accept the key tabs on the blackline bars, then have them recoated with PC or chrome.

Wouldn't it be easier to get 1'' risers and use these....

I have a Blackline top clamp and bars I might be interested in parting with.
