Default T-bars on a slim
I'm having trouble deciding if t-bars like the ones in this picture would look good on a Slim. I have 10" apes now but am regretting my choice because I want a shorter height around 6".
As you can can see from my signature pic I have a sissy bar also which I need to consider.

Any other handlebar suggestions would be welcomed


Thanks

Go back to the stock Hollywood bars. Old School cool in my book. Seeing as how you ditched those for apes and are now considering T's.....probably not what you wanted to read.
