I haven't posted much due to some other bike projects I have been working on but I thought I would share some changes I just made to the bob.
At first I was going to sell the Harley because it wasn't as comfortable to ride as my other bikes but I wasn't going to give it away and didn't want to sell it locally (cause I didn't want to see it) I finally decided to keep it and just make a few adjustments to fit my riding style a bit better.
Also my old a$$ having back problems and circulation issues I had to ditch the RSD vintage apes and do with something a little more user friendly. After thinking about it long and hard I decided to go with Wild1 chubby "street fighter" bars. Actually they fit my more aggressive riding style and are a lot more comfortable "for me" than my last set up. Next up might be switching back to mids.
The sissy bar is on for a weekend trip I have coming up.

I'm really curious about this as well... aren't the stock bob bars about a 6.5" pull pack and these are 8.5"?, It seems like they could be a pretty comfortable bar, but I can't afford a $200 guess...
