After

Was going for a custom duo-glide look that you may have seen in the 60's. With a little of my own style too

How do you like them? Comfortable? I'm 6' and don't want to have to reach too far for a low bar but I like the looks.

I,m 6ft as well . I have always ran drag bars on my bikes so they feel fine to me .. But I am sure they are a big switch from apes .. You do have to reach for them though ..

Make one model, have the customer "customize" it to his liking, and have only one model to sell. I have NO inside info, just what my gut is telling me.
