Default Iron Handlebar

I hate the stock handlebars on my Iron, as the pull back on that short bar is killing my back. I want some drag bars with the same rise as stock, any suggestions? I don't want to replace the brake lines or wiring. Thanks.

I have the stock nightster handlebars that you could put on your bike. No need for extensions or anything. I'll sell them to you for a great price.

i just put some drag bars on my Iron - they are the wide drag bars in black from Lick's Cycles - they went straight on the stock risers and clear the tank with room to spare. Feel much better than stock as well !

I think Lick's has some handlebars that will fit my style. Nightster bars are nice, but would require some brake line work.

I like to see a picture of your Iron with the drag bars, but when I click on the link it won't open for me. forgive me I am a newbie to this forum.

I like the drag bar look but want bars back a bit.

can you post a few pictures? thanks.
