Default Handlebars
Looking to put some new handlebars on my 2006 883. Split between mini apes and 10" z bars. Open to suggestions and pictures of your bars.

Thanks,

Sharp bike. What are you wanting from the new bars? I'm running Harley's 12" apes on my Iron and its pretty comfortable for me (I'm 6' and 260)

you should not have to change any of the lines for these bars, slight adjustments yes but you should be fine with the stock lines.

watch the video Mr_Taipan posted.

I like handlebars simple and clean on a sportster, personally. Those Keystones are sweet.
