Default *New* BR Custom Ape Hanger Install w/ Pics

Here are some pics from my phone. The bars are BR Custom Swingers, Alloy Art 2" counter-bored riser, Kuryakyn levers and control/master cylinder cover, H-D smooth chrome front fork cover, braided lines, chrome bolt covers, and chrome riser washers. Install was done by my buddies at Bill Allen MC in Bryan Texas (Support your local independently owned bike shop). Pictures just don't do it justice. Enjoy

Looks great. I've been checking out BR's website and videos.
If I do decide to change my bars out, I'll be supporting my local wallet by installing them myself.

LOL! I wish I had more time to install myself. 1 day off would cost me more than the price of the intall and w/ my skills I'd need at least 3. BR does excellent work.

These measured out at 19". They are more comfortable and make me more agile than my old Heritage bars. I scrape my floorboards all the time now. I'm still adjusting my mirrors a lot. I tried inverting them, but didn't care for the look on my bike. It seems I have more blind spots now. It just enforces the need to do a quick look before changing lanes.

I almost went with Nash, but they couldn't make that bottom bend with an 1.25" bar. Love their bars though.

Nice work.
