Tall riser's or pullback riser's mounted backwards ANYONE???
 
So I've searched and searched and can't seem to find any pics of softails with a pullback riser mounted backwards. Also I can't seem to find any softails with 8", 10", or 12" straight riser's either. I'm flirting with the idea of a tall riser with a possible flat track style bar or a drag bar.

Anyone with any of these combo's, can you please post your pics?

Why not just buy a set of T-Bars. This forum is full of bikes and quite a few Softails with them.

I don't like T-bar's and I have a blackline so that really narrow's my options down. T-bar style Todd's Cycle offers a pair but I just don't dig'em. I like drag bars turned down which gives a lil different look imo on top of taller riser's than the look you get from a T-bar, I've just never done it on a Softail before. Really interested in seeing what a pair of pullback riser's would look like backwards to get a bit more aggressive riding stance. Here's what I'm looking at as an option...

Those mounted backwards with about a 2" pullback DragBar turned down at about 45 degree's is kinda what I got in my head. From what I measure that should put my hands a lil higher and a lil further forward, which is what I'm going for.

So you want the bar angled down sort of like this one?

I really like the bar's in the last link you sent me. I'll have to get ahold of them and see if they'll do those bars with my 5.5" riser spacing. That's exactly the type of look I was picturing in my head. Right on man, thanks for the links.

Jesse,

I think this is what your are talking about. I made my own and it did not cost me to much either.

Hey, thanks for the pics. That is similar. I'm really leaning towards building my own bar's at this point so I get exactly what I want.
