Default Be Careful!!

Nice job on those bars. I posted a picture of my RK with my Black Carlini Flyin' Apes 16". I had a small problem with the clamp holding the bars. When I was parked in gravel or sand and tried to "Duck Walk" the bike into a position , I yanked the bars loose. A good fix is to either wrap old inner tube or a large grit of sandpaper around the pipe and then tighten. BE CAREFUL THOUGH, to not tighten too much. I snapped off a portion of the clamp by tightening too much.

Other than that, I love these bars. No problems handling when riding slow & they're damn comfortable while cruising. I'm 6' 2" and would highly recommend them.

Nice looking bikes, are those bars 1.25" or 1.5"? Did you change your risers?
