Default my new dilemma

So....Im thinking bout swapping upthe handlebars on my night train....im so torn about this, i need advice. I have 6" risers with 12" apes right now. i liketo kinda stretch for my bars, and have em kinda high, but i think i wanna drop em down a bit, for handling and more of a sport type look. i was thinking of going with the vulcan engineering 10" risers with some 4" Z bars. i dont think the 4" drop will call for new cables. do you? and what do you think about this setup.

The bars you have now are Awsome! Why not keep the bars and switch to a 2" riser. That will shorten you up 4".

Just another option.

I think that setup that you have pick out will end up looking pretty good on your bike, but I am a fan up shorter drag type bars like that. I know many people love the apes, but they are just not my style. I really think that it takes away from the look of the bike. That is just my opinion and I know many will disagree, but to each their own! Give that setup a try, if you dont like it you can sell it on ebay and get something else.

Good Luck,
