Default Hollywood handlebar

Hi guys,

I am considering a new handlebar for my 04 springer. Any of you have a hollywood handlebar? I have the stock low bar and like the feel of the low bar. Wanted to see what others thought..

Thanks,
JS

I have been wanting a set as well. Did a quick search a couple weeks ago but didn't see many made for Late model Springers (mines an 05) and the couple I did see cost more than I'm willing to spend.

Will be checking ebay to see if I might be able to score a used one on the cheap.

Best looking stock bars Harley makes, IMHO. But I'm biased. I think they go great with any vintage styled bike. Never even considered taking them off my Slim.

I would imagine that any of the bars that have are 1" tube would fit on a standard riser. I have seen some for the old bikes that have the tree up top.

Springer risers are narrower than standard forks. I know some guys use standard bars anyway but you can run the risk of the bars slipping in the risers since there is no knurling to help them stay in place. At least that's the way I think it would work.
