Default Affordable Crash Bars?
Does anyone have any recommendation as to where to get crash bars for the XL, that are decent, but don't cost H-D Prices?

Off hand I don't have an answer tio your question. My thought is that if you do find them I doubt there would be that much difference in price.

Check out PhatPerformance. I got my Lindby Multibar for about half the price of a HD highway bar.

I recommend the Lindby Linbar. It's around $300 from indies, but it's worth it, as it's also a combination highway foot rest as well.

It's what's on my bike in the pic.
