Looking at the Harley brand Beach Bars for a Softail Deluxe! Anyone have them? how do you like them compared to others? Appreciate the input!

I have some that were on my Road King in great shape. 1 1/4 " internal wiring if they would work for you.

 

I have the HD beach bars on my Heritage. I find beach bars very comfortable. I prefer an upright posture when riding and I have long arms so they work well for me. Tight U-turns are more difficult with beach bars because the bars can hit your leg. You learn to swing your leg out when making the U-turn.

They are 1.25" bars that are pre-drilled for internal wiring. Grips ends are 1". Bars are 36" wide with 2.5" of rise and 14" of pullback.

I haven't tried other beach bars but if I did, I would get, in this order, Chubby WO550 beach bars and Burly beach bars.

 

these are the bars off my 99 fatboy...I thought they seemed like semi beach bars

 

Another option, Carlini Freeway bars.

 

I grew up riding dirt bikes and prefer bars of that style. The Harley beach bars fit the ticket but I am not very thrilled about the chrome. Bars are just under 5 years on this second pair and I really have to keep after it to keep the rust away.




The bars are the only piece of chrome on the bike I have had issues with...Harley. Next time, I would go with another brand.
