I spent the better half of this morning mocking up a pair of custom bars. A big thanks to all of the forum members for their advice prior to the mockup.


Custom Johnny Chop bars (28" W, 10" H, 2.5" pullback, 30degrees turned down).
Dimpled and predrilled for internal wiring.

looks cool... long as it is comfortable for you.

 

Looks badass....RIP Johnny Chop.

 

I've always really liked the Johnny Chop bars. Looks like they could use some narrowing, but I always say that.

 

Wait, you are taking the reflectors and signals off, aren't you?

 

Sure is gratifying to finally see a rider actually doing more than bolting-on something "they" saw on someonelse's bike. That's a big part of being a REAL biker. I salute you.

 

Look cool as hell....gonna look tight with the controls on

 

NICE!! Those are dope man! Very nice... I can't wait to see what it looks like completely finished. Keep us updated man. Those are some tough bars.

 

Thanks fellas for the props!
Country Punk, the bars do look like they could be narrowed, but...they are only a total of 28" across(including the 5 inches from riser to riser). I think once I have the handcontrols on it will really put their width in perspective. Yes...the reflectors will be coming off - I am planning on powdercoating the fork lowers when I get the bars coated. And if you like Panheads, like in your sig, check out my album...I have a 50 pan under the sheet in the corner of my garage.

Thanks again for the kind words everyone!
