WestCoast MX-Tbars

Can someone please post pics of their ROAD GLIDE with the MX Tbars on them. Preferably 10" or bigger pics, I think I want the 10" MX tbars because they would actually be 12" tall bars. Thanks so much...your pics will be appreciated....AJ

I was as close as you can get to pulling the trigger on those. I saw a RG at Reno HD that had the standard West Coast T-Bar in 14". They looked REAL good. I like the MX style even better.

mx tbars

Im def. Gonna buy the mx tbars just dont know if i want the 10" or the 12" ones. They are actually like 1.5"s bigger cause the measurement is the rise only......i dont know if the 12's(14s) would be to high, i want shoulder height or a lil lower. Im 5'10....ill prob go with the 10"s........

Chinbagger: you may want to double check on the rise measurement. I'm pretty sure it's overall rise including the bend. Also, take in account that you will not be using the stock handlebar clamp which is approx. 1.75" high. Good luck! I really like my mx-bars!

I bought the 14"MX for my RG last year. Just couldnt get used to how narrow they are and how short they felt. Im a big guy 6'5" and the bike felt so small to me so I put my 16" apes back on. As stated before keep in mind that stock risers are pulled off so you lose close to 2 ". I think if they had 18"MX it might work for me. Thought about trying the 18" tbar on my RK just dont want to waste the $$ again. Will say the MX bars look bad ***!!
