The other day I rode with my buddy who has an Iron883. I noticed his bars are shorter then mine. I was wonerring if anyone has swapped the bars on their Nighty for some off an Iron? And if they had any problems with flipped mirrors?

 

i havnt done it but i have an iron with flipped mirrors and a nightster and iron are phisically the same bike just the nightster has a 1200.i have no issues with the flipped mirrors hitting anything

 

Doing the mirror mod is pretty easy...just takes some slight adjusting afterwards to avoid hitting the tank at full turn...if you dont like it just switch them back...

I recently did Drag Bars and the mirrors still do not hit anything...plus I can actually see better with them now...

Good call...I think the Iron bars are alot cooler than the Nightster bars.

 

Thanks guys. I'm going look on ebay for some used ones.

 

The handlesbars are smaller on the Iron. The are shorter and dont have such a rise on them. They are closer to drag bars....and yes the flipped mirrors 100% fit and clear!!!!!!!!

 

take yr nighty bars flip'em and cut the tips off them so they are really short, that would be cool
