RE: Z BARS!!!!!
I heard from a custom bike shop that when buying Zbars you have to get really expensive ones otherwise the vibration from the harley will cause the welds to crack. 6o66er has Zbars JUST like I want, but now I'm worried my suff's gonna break apart going down the road...of course the example he showed me was a set of Z bars that a customer had his buddy make. They were 21" tall and I kid you not, like 4 inches apart from each other. The throttle and left hand grip were really close to each other also. They had to have been the least comfortable looking Z bars ever. I could see them vibrating to pieces cuase the were so tall and narrow, way more than usual, but the bars he reccomended were over 400 dollars! There has to be a quality set of Z bars that are cheaper.

While there's no need to pay astronomical prices, bars are not something to **** with. They CAN break. Especially z's that are welded poorly. If you buy them, make sure they're TIG welded, if you make them, do the same.

RE: Z BARS!!!!!
Apparently not for z's...cheapest ones they have are 105.00...and they're only a 4" rise. A set EXACTLY like mine cost 129.00 on steelthunder....only 119 on J&P.
Licks charges more than J&P, for z's....steelthunder and tejasthump, as well as many others, charge more than J&P.
I did alot of research before I bought mine...trust me, for a nice set, J&P is a good place to get em.
Aside from ebay and craigslist, they honestly are the cheapest. They're also the fat bars, they're not the standard 1".
119.00 for a set of 12" fatty Z's is not a bad price at all. They have standard 1" z's for even less.
