9.5 Wild 1 risers, Sportster bars. 13.5 in from the tree to the grips. I like risers/bars so I can adjust the angle. T-bars look cleaner with wires ran internally, but it's a fair trade off to not have my hands trapped in a pullback I may not like

I like that shiftace. Any pullback in those risers? How much and where can I find them?

How long did your Westcoast T-bars take to come in? I generally hear two weeks. It's been a week and a half and my order still says "processing".

Some nice bikes in this thread..

My bars are 11" Southeast custom cycles trackers. I'm 5-11" and it wouldn't hurt if they were a little taller, but I was able to barely use my stock wiring, so that helped make my decision at the time. I did the whole front end/headlight/wheel/seat/forwards/bars/clutch cable/brake line, last winter and I was out of money for much else.

I still need new mirrors, just need a few bucks.

Wish I had an action shot..

Emerican, I ordered my bars from Scott at WCTB on Friday 11 May and my bars arrived at my place on Wednesday 16 May. Maybe you should just give him a call.

I'm not running a fairing yet and these stick straight up and don't really flow with the bike. A fairing would make it look much better but I've got some other stuff to sort out before I drop the cash on a fairing.


Forbiddens? sounds like someone knows what they are buying. hope soon to see a pro taper set up and something that goes with a set of bung king brackets. Cant say I wont be jealous

Yep. That's all in the works. I've been trying to pick up a used fairing but no one wants to come off one.

I was told they were the brand "West Coast T-bars", which they aren't. They look very similar but the pull back is different. The bars are fine, just a little wider and a bit more pullback than I'd like.
