Gramps, what bars are those on your fine Fatty? I have 08 1-1/4" Fatty anniversery bars on mine and want something lower.

RE: The FATBOY Picture Thread
Thanks for the reply GrampsWyatt. I for forgot Jack the Border is no longer in my Sig. Here he is guarding his cattle.
I'm interested in those bars but wonder about the seating position. Do you have to lean forward a lot or just a bit? How are thewy on trips?
Do you by chance have a picture of you seated on it.
Thanks again,
Marsh

RE: The FATBOY Picture Thread
With the bars the seating position is just a bit forward. To be honest I wish they were about 1" taller and about 2" back. I put their adapter on so bars would fit the Fatboy 1-1/4 risers (adapter is a part that wraps around middle section of bars that are 1" so they will fit in 1-1/4 riser) The adapter is 2 parts and one part has an oblong hole for hand control wires to thread through. I need to "notch" adapter so wires will slip through the notch so I don't have to rewire to get adapter off. Anyway, I'm going to notch with it on bike and then I can use all kinds of risers to get the bars where I want them. The selection of risers for 1-1/4"bars (cup for bar) is slim at best. With the adapter off the bars are 1" in center so I can use any riser and put a top cap on riser and you will not see the 1-1/4 to 1" transition. All in all the bars feel good and I feel I have great control of the bike. I'll work on baby doll to get her to snap a pix w/me sitting on motorbike in a day or so.

I jsut ordered a licnese plate relocation bracket from softbrake like Dinger has. $40 is all it cost. Should be here tomorrow. More rainy day activities.

It relocates the plate below the taillight.

Dmac,
I am on a bar quest and wonder what those bars & risers areon your scoot. I like them as well as gramps bars. They almost look like 1-1/4" fatty bars. Are they?

I think they are fine. I like the way they kinda blend in, like just another lever. Not an add on piece.
They are gonna be in the perfect shape now that I installed the "Harley Goodies Floor Board Extentions".
http://www.harleygoodies.com/
Now they are out from behind the brake and shifter levers.
From the first day I sat on a Harley with floorboards, I asked the salesman if they made any extentions to move them out and he said no.
I wearsize 12 EE boots (shoes) so I need more room.
I haven't rode it with the extentionson yet, but it feels fine in the garage. LOL
I've tried the Kuryakyn Highway (old school lookin') Bars and the HD Mustache bar (with add on pegs) butI like the Mark III's the best for looks and the position I want.
I tried to take before and after pictures but they are kinda fuzzy, but here goes.
