Im also looking to get some straight bars for cheep. The sites above look good. What should i look for (I have an 06 883C Frame). You mentioned something about indented? Also, I would prefer not having to replace any cables.


Thanks!

 

If you're going to run your wires inside the bars, you can use dimpled or not. Not dimpled looks better. If you're going to have the wires outside the bars, you need dimpled.

 

Look for the diameter of the bar, if they are knurled, and if they are dimpled.

 

How hard is it to internaly wire the bars?what size would I need if I do that? I found a set that was both knurled and indented what does the knurling do on the bars?

 

The knurling (sp?) is there to help prevent the bars from slipping or moving.
If you want to run the wires internally, get the non-dimpled bars.
I needed 1" bars for my bike, not sure if your year is that size or not. It's not super hard to run the wires for drag bars. I had a buddy help me with mine.
You will need to lift the gas tank and disconnect the wires for your horn, lights, etc.
I'll try to find the link that helped me.

Hey, so i was wondering if i could grab some help with choosing some drag bars. I like the straight bars on the nightster i think they are sick. Im just not a fan of the very short bars. I also really want to have the mirrors below the bars. What do you guys think about these?
