good bars are not cheap
and cheap bars are not good
since your not wiring up yet
take those off and have a good welder look at those welds ( where mine were cracked )
and maybe beef em up
i did not know nothing and could have bit the big one
with those chit heads bars
Good Luck

Thanks for the heads up on the bars. I only bought these because I couldn't find any more in the size I wanted. Looked for weeks trying to find a z bar that was the same width as the trees. Well that was a big waste of time since I now have the wide glide trees. So I figure once I get done with everything I'll change the bars. I think they look too small now anyways. And I'll never trust them after seeing yours.

Mike's correct about Bill making them to fit you and the look you want.

I like posting because of all the chrome and blue, Mike throws up a little in his mouth when he sees my bike...
