wife says Her leg are hiting the sadlebags crash bar .Her floor boards are all the way up. any ideas need keep her happy she buy's the bikes

 

You could get the comfort saddlebag guards, they are lower and look to be better for the passengers feet. Or you can get the stealth bar (cheapest solution at $119.99 list price), but you lose all protection of the saddlebag.

I recently replaced the chrome guards with the stealth bar. My wife had the same problems with her feet, and that was the first thing she said after we went on a test ride. We compared the cost of replacing the bag vs. replacing the guards and it's about even overall. (I laid my bike down on the right side. Replacing the guards, the support bar and the saddlebag lid - the guard bent and popped the lid open, causing it to get scratched to all hell - ended up costing me about what a new saddlebag would.)

Oh, and I wouldn't call them crash bars. Too negative a connotation for me.

 

If you don't mind loosing the saddlebag rails you can get the comfort or low profile bag guards. The top bar curves down sooner than the stock bars. There are in the HD catalog. The only downside is they don't have provisions for the rails. Good luck.
