These are burleigh T-bars - www.burleighbars.com.au

 

Brand is not as important as finding the right fit. I just put West Coast T-Bars on the wife's sportster. They have very little pullback. I was running Wild 1 WO560's with 14.5" of pullback before these. I like the new bars with less pullback more than the massive amount of pullback on the Wild 1's.

I find that raising the height of the bars always makes me more comfortable. It sounds to me like a Drag barf with 4" of pullback or so 7" tall would be about what you wnat, but it is difficult to say what works for someone else.

Drew,

I hear ya.. that is part of the challenge... I can't buy 4 different bars.. install them all, then send back the ones I don't like.... sure would be nice eh?

thanks for the comments.

 

WAhog,

How tall are you? Trying to get a feel for similar sized rider..

I am 5'11" with fairly long arms.

I'm 6" but fairly average arm length so you should be good with long arms.

This is a pic of me with the chrome versions that I had previously which although slightly thinner (1 1/2" vs 1 3/4") have the same pull back.

Thanks for that too.

Those look pretty comfy.

btw, nice pictures... either you or your OL have a real knack for photography!

 

wow 9 hours to put bars on by a dealer? That means it will take me like 36 hours????? Sounds like a good winter project. I have months to get it done.

 

Thanks, the photography on the static pics where just taken on an iPhone4 with an app called Hipstamatic - simulates amazing old style lenses and effects. The riding pic was taken by a friend who now lives in Ghana of all places
