I find the Wild 1 bars just as nice at a lower pirce, although the Carlini stuff is cool. I have the wing clutch levers they make and quite like them.

Hey Warg, I remember when you got your current bars... Aren't they the drag brand or buffalo bars or something like that? If they're in great shape (no scratchy) and you decide to bump to the bigtime (Jeeez I can't believe there exists bars for $350) but anyway let me know if you're sellin' yours. I dig 'em.

Hey Babs,

I'll let you know, it will be a while, I have some other stuff on the list first. And I agree, $350 is rediculous.

Funny how tastes change huh... I'm even considering unloading the rineharts just to try something different.. !! yikes! Never thought I'd say that.. Maybe a 2-1 D&D or VH or RH.. I dunno.. It'd have to be something lowwwww-slung to clear these bigass saddlebags. hehe

I have a D&D Fat Cat on the list as well. I like my pipes, but think the performance would be better with the 2 into 1. Unfortunately, I'm down to all the expensive mods now. After I do my chrome controls, everything else will be very pricey.

No kidding.. I guess the saving grace is hopefully a good selling price for the staggered RH's.. Sorry.. I derailed your handlebar thread. Yep, those fat cats appear to be the latest hot-potato 'round here.. I need to learn to tune my scoot I think.. I just have a low-rpm issue that's pissing me off.. If I could fix that, I'd be golden... no mods.. just dynojet kit and kn air cleaner kit. Don't know if carb tuning can fix it.. as I know less than nothing about carbs.. Might have to bite the bullet and get a sure enough technician that does actually know his butt from a hole in the ground around carbs (unlike myself) to tune the bike.

Anyway.. onward with handlebars. hehehe sorry again.

Hey I thought I saw some Khrome Werks bars at one time that was a similar curled up-tube look to those carlini's.. don't know if they expanded and naturally can't get into their site here at the office.

Yep.. These sweeper bars.. but I don't think they're fat bars:

I just received mine in the mail, I am going to be installing them in the next couple of weeks on my '03 Heritage. Thanks to several posts in this forum I feel confident the installation will go smoothly!!!!
