Does this refer to both the midget and regular gimps?

I'm worried about install time if I try to do them before I go back to NC, may just order them up and ride around with the stock bars until I have the time to play with it...

Never done it before, so I'm sure the learning curve will be steep.

Thanks much

 

both. The regular gimps are no wider than your stock bars at the grips, and the midget gimps are designed more for a narrowglide front(sportster and older Dyna) with the base being like an inch or so more narrow than the regulars. Nash also take about 2-3 months before sending you their bars... The bars are sweet, look a little off with a speedo or tach. on the risers though(why I sold mine). Install time will be just a few hours. Go look at your cables and their routing and you'll see that you have a few extra inches to go with the Nash 14" bars.

 

Looking at them will be an issue as I'm in Iraq, and will be conveniently for another 3 months....

So....

I just ordered a pair of the regular 14" black gimps

Can't wait! I will have my THeader, SE Stage 1 AC, license plate mount, TTS tuner, Works black trackers, and some other stuff waiting on me when I get back!

 

cool ... IMHO that is a perfect list of upgrades you got there... Get home safe!!!!

 

Thanks, luckily things are slowing down over here. Not much we can do any more.

As for the mods, I have spent a lot of time browsing and prioritizing. I think I've got a reasonable setup planned, and am trying to spare no expense!

Thanks for the help!

 

And last but not least after hi-jacking your thread:

I was facing the same dilemma. I liked the idea of keeping the bars more narrow than the forks, however I also liked the more prominent bend in the std gimps.

In regards to the pudgy gimps, I couldn't justify another 120.00 or whatever it is for an extra 1/4" of bar, though they do look badazz.

Look around for pictures of them. I saved the pictures of both bars from the "dimensions" link and compared them side by side.

As far as length, I'm barely 5'7 so thats a factor, and I don't like the look of the huge apes with little front end rake. I do like the size and look over the 14's compared to stock on the SB though.

A lot to think about...
