Default Night train handlebars?

I have an 07 street bob and I would like to possibly put some night train bra on my bike. I have seen a fee pics of this setup and it looks great, I know I would have to change my cables and that's no big deal, I have looked on eBay for the bats and came up with nothing, if I could find some I would love to give it a shot. Do the night train bars connect directly to the triple trees or are they in risers? Any help would be greatly appreciated, especially if you have a set to sell. I enjoy the apes but want to try something new

Spell check hurts sometimes. Bars is obviously what I meant. I blame it on the Budweiser

Zuggs: They're just drag bars. Check ebay, the classifieds or go to the night train pic thread and see if anyone there wants to sell theirs along with the risers.

Those are pretty much exactly what I'm looking for. Those bars bolt right to the trees correct?

I have actual stock NT drag bars, but sold the risers for them. PM me if you want them.

I put a set of Night Train bars/risers on my Standard and I love em. I find that riding position much more comfortable than the stock bars that were on my Standard and they definitely look 100x better.

I've ridden apes, beach, tracker and drag bars - my opinion: drags with the correct height risers for you work best on long rides.

I sold my stock NT drag bar for cheap on eBay; $30 I think. Biltwell sells a "Zero Drag" that I use now - it's not more than $65 brand new I think. Stock NT risers are 6" - I could be talked out of mine I think - if you're interested PM me an offer. I've been thinking of getting 8" 's.

Here's what a slightly narrowed ZeroDrag and stock risers will look like:



With stock hand controls you really can't get much more narrow than about 24" before the brake M/C hits the riser. Although, there is no point in going much narrower than your foot pegs if you're doing it to white line. Squeezing a Softail between a space smaller than 2.5' at 20-30mph isn't advised... ask me how I know...

Go with 4" risers. Looks so much better. Mine are 4".
