Default Anybody runnin Nash Pudgy Grit 14" Apes?

Thinkin about running those on my iron 883. Look good but damn they're expensive! Maybe if I see someone on here with an iron and those bars I'll get motivated to drop the coin.

thanks dude! just don't cut any corners and take your time. if your bars fail going down the road it won't be pretty. i'm curious to see what you come up with though dude. post some pics if you start bending that metal!

Got lazy and ordered some Nash 12" grit hangers. I'm thinkin the stock throttle cables should be ok. WHat brake line should I use? Clutch cable?

Talking Pudgies are here!

Exactly 6 weeks after my payment was received, I got these yesterday (to South Africa no less).

Awesome craftsmanship, quite heavy. Drilled and prepped for the sticky throttle.

These are the 14" Pudgy Grits.

Just waiting to hear from the stealer on the turn signal relocate (otherwise they'll have to re-wire when I do it).

The guys at Nash respond very fast sometimes and sometimes not at all, but the bars are tops and I'd recommend Nash anytime

Gonna look good. why you waiting on the stealer for turn signal relocate? Other manufacturers make them that are cheaper and IMO better looking. And you can definately do that mod yourself.

Had the 14" narrow based grits on my Iron and loved them.Quality bars no doubt,Expensive no doubt.Ordered mine from Taber Nash over the phone seems like a great guy but the bars took twice as long to get as they said and were not good at returning emails and phone calls.But worth the wait IMHO.The bars do slip in the clamps though because of the lack of knurling.PM me your email address and I can shoot some good pics your way.Dont know how to post pics on the forum sorry.

thanks Flatlander

Out here in the bush we don't have much in terms of aftermarket. I want to get the bars fitted ASAP (going on a road trip) so I just need the relocation before they mount the bars. I can always get something else later. I presume its just the stems, right?

Me have no tools whatsoever so I don't know...with the locktite and all it'll be blisters with my ***** tools.

Trying to remove the sissybar and luggage rack was a nightmare, not to mention the tank and fenders (i.e. The stealer did it).

Only things I've managed were the timer cover and the fork cleanup

Pics will follow soonish
