Thanks for the comlpement... I have the stock bars with the 4" chrome risers HD sells for $104. I really needed the bars to pull back about 2" after installing the Corbin seat and HD had them in stock so I bought them. They are VERY comfy on longer rides now.

Harleygold,
I have roadking high back bars and they are similar to what Bob has but they don't need risers and they look good on my fatboy. I will get a picture of them if you like.

Only dumb question is the one never asked...

"Tins" refers to fenders and tanks. Buy a new bare metal set which you like and have them custom painted. Keep your originals in case you ever want to go back. The value of the bike as a collector may never be there, but the resale value will certainly be better if all the original stuff comes with it.

Check out the numerous bike parts catalogs. There is a nirvana of different fenders and tanks available which would allow you to make it look totally different or almost stock. The beauty is, it's YOUR choice.

New Tank/Fenders is what we are talking about. You can buy sets already painted on ebay but I found someone that can paint mine.
