Anyone running a lowered dyna (front & rear) with Lindby Hiway Bars? Just wondering if there is any clearance problems with front fender?

I'm wondering because a note (warning type) on Kuryakyn Mustache bars caution mentioned about possible fender clearance with lowered bikes.

 

i would guess it would drag to be honest.. but never seen one!

 

It's not dragging I'm really concerned with Joe. It's fender clearance with the bars hard left or right. I was gonna just install a Kury Mustache bar for longer rides then saw a caution/warning that fender clearance could be a problem with lowered bikes. I have 11" shocks on rear and Progressive drop-in lowering ket in front so got to wondering about the lindby bars and any possible clearance problems with them. Hopefully, since they seem to run fairly parallel with the frame, it wouldn't be a fender clearance problem. I think the concern with the Mustache Bars is they can be moved forward or back and could come in contact with the front fender on turns when longer legged guys have them forward.

 

This is not mine, but one at the dealer where I bought mine. It was lowered both front and rear and had a Lindby bar...

 

Thanks Tom, plenty of clearance there. Should work just fine.

 

The older lowriders have more rake than the 06 and later bikes 32degrees vs 29 I think.

 

Yeah, I know. Still hoping the way the bar slants back at an angle I'll be okay. won't be getting it for a few days so will see.

 

I'm interested in the results of this, as I'm on the flip side.....have the Lindby bar and thinking about lowering the bike.

I would appreciate a follow up once you get it done.

 

will do. May be a couple of weeks. When I look at the small image of your bike with the Lindby bars, it makes me wonder even more if it's gonna work. They don't seem to have the same slant back as the ones on the 2003 fxdl that was shown a couple responses above. Probably just the angle of the shot.

 

Just contacted Lindby. Didn't tell them I've order yet but here is their quick response. Sure makes me feel better.
