That's tough because 1. they feel great for my ergo's and 2. there's not many after market mods for 'em. I think it's Burly that makes Z bars for it. I think the low Z bars, maybe 4 - 6 inch rise would look killer...

Good question. Once I have it in my garage the wheels will start spinnin' literally and metaphorically.

What would you do? Just curious. Again, they feel as if they were made for me.

Congrats on the new whip. IF I were to buy brand new, I would more than likely start with the BL as well.

Here is what you do to get rid of those lame stock bars they come with.

Had to run quick. My OL just blew up a cake in the oven. Had to give her a hug.
Maybe some radius drag bars? But how? Anything standard is gonna have to be done with some tall *** risers, right?
