Does anyone know if I can run the RSD Vintage Short Stack bars on my 08 X-bones? With out having to change the risers.

Also, do the Biltwell Frisco bar have any type of pull back to them?

Reason why I am ask in because I have to change out my 16" apes to something smaller. I get a nasty kink in my right shoulder and cant do the longer rides.

Thanks

 

only thing i can help you with is with the biltwells .....wow they are thick tubing...i have the 12 inch narrows and love the hell outta em they have the best pullback and i ride like im on a couch....for 99 bucks i would try them first....the rsd bars look like an awkward hand angle position and no pullback but never seen em person......go wit the 12 inch narrows, they are narrow at the base and are so comfy and only cost 99 bucks instead of 300....

 

hear is some pics

I just put the 10" chubby strip bars on my ride and they are by far the most comfortable bars and handle better than any other type bar i've tried. Good luck.

 

Can you use HD risers or do you need to use Biltewell risers with them. They look really cool...now you got me thinking as well.

 

nope stock risers...their 1 inch.....i had to drill em myself to run wires inside but pretty easy....they are dimpled so just drill there and one wide hole in center of the bottom...............they are narrow so they look good cuz they aint so wide at the tree or in your case springs.....oh my bad thought you wur original poster with the springer

 

Nope I am a man with a Deuce...that really needs some Apes!

 

Thanks guys, I was looking into get the bars you have Honylips but wanted shorter bars and Todds only makes the 10 for springer

 

I'm w/ Db for the price biltwells can't be beat...

 

Go with the biltwells those RSD bars are really narrow. The RSD's look right on a sportster but not a softail.
