Bars - what would you do?
#12
Thanks for the thoughts so far!
since getting the bike I’ve always had the drag look in my mind... but I will always need a pillion option, so chopped rear fender isn’t on the cards... I do like the extended fender though, and might be able to customise this for a pillion seat when I need it...
the bike will be lowered with air ride, and my current plan is to black out the fatty, but keep the original 115th paint.
Since seeing the 2inch black high *****, I keep going back and forth over plans. They look mean, and have a more “traditional” chopper look.
At £600 a set (before wiring kit and fitting) it’s a steep investment if I change my mind 😳

I'am in a situation now narrowing down to two different bars . I like the looks of both . Questions to ask ? what is your arm length ? How is your back for long rides you will be hunched over with the drag bars , long trips ? With the apes you will need to buy longer clutch cables ,front brake cable ect... a lot more money . Will you be doing the install yourself ? The drag bars would be much easier to do all the line and cable threading . If a Stealership is going to do the job maybe another 2-3 hrs of labor for the apes . I was quoted anywhere between $900.00-$1100.00 for the stealership to install Harley's Reach handlebars on a 2019 Softail Slim .
