I am looking at changing my bars on my 07 fatty.
I keep getting shoulder and lower back pain with the stock bars.
I changed the seat to the sidekick.
I am 6'4" and feel like im reaching for the stock bars.
I am looking at either the mini apes or the street slammer bars from HD.

My question is for any of you taller riders that have done this switch wich bars do you recommend?

Thanks.

 

I have an 06 fatty and I'm 6'1 and i chose to go with the slammers. What a difference. Good luck with your choice. Ray

 

let me tell you what i did. bars from a street bob on mine. no more pain for me,and no cables to change at all. They are mini apes . perfect for me. and cheap to buy.Ask in the dyna section and i bet someone will sell you some real cheap. Best of luck. east install too . Works well with my mustache bar too. nice to stretch the legs out when you want.

 

I put 12.5 wild1 chubbys on mine,no more pain.Very comfortable better handling and maneuverability,atleast for me.I'm 6'1,also you can change riding positions very easily.
Good luck

 

Im 5'11' and was thinking about the Carlini cleansweeps for mine. just havent made the call, yet.

 

I am 6'3" and had the same problem. I solved it with a simple set of pullback risers. Brought the bars up a few and back towards me. Stock bars, no cable issues and took only an hour to put on. Now the position is perfect. Search the forum for my origional post, it was back about three weeks.

 

Glad to hear about the cables BD. I'm putting on 4.5" pullbacks tomorrow. I'll let you know how it works out.

 

the problem with the '07 & '08 FatBoys are they have true 1 1/4" bars.... no risers available as of yet. changing the bars and risers is the only solution. probably means changing cables too.

good luck!!

 

Not sure about the 4.5 risers, mine were 3.5. You may have to move a few things.

 

If your going with apes, go with full size (not mini). Go 12.5 at a minimum. You will have to change cables, but it will be worth it. You could even go 16 or 18. Mine are 12.5, but I'm 6'0. You may want to go taller. Mine are way more comfy than stock.
