Default Anyone riding Flanders Swept Back Flat Track (J5) bars?

Still thinking about a handlebar change. Anyone riding the Flanders Swept Back Flat Track Bars?

A picture of the bars and specs can be found at: http://www.sideroadcycles.com/Americ...wept_Back.html

It would be real helpful to see some pics of the bars actually on some dynas rather than just in a catalog. Was thinking maybe black instead of chrome this time around. All comments appreciated.

Not to steal the thread, but 08fxd that is the best looking Fat Bob I've seen.

I was very close to ordering those but instead decided to try a set of Nightster take offs.So far I'm liking them allot.I had the H5s for quite awhile but always wished they had just a little more pull back, which is why I was looking at the J5s.Please go ahead and try these and let the rest of us know how they work out.I really can't imagine a flat track bar with a little more pull back being uncomfortable.

Thanks Special Ed. Will double check measurements and probably go with the J5's. Once I get them installed (and if the weather ever warms up) I will give them a ride and let you know how they worked out.

Default Flanders bars

Hey 08fxdf43202, What risers did you match up to your handlebars?
Which version of the H5 flat track wide bars did you get? the 2.25" x 4.25" or the 3.375" x 6.125"?

How do they compare to the stock bars as far as comfort?
