Title: Handle bar swap
Post by madmikesmech on 07/24/19 at 12:02:36

Hello all, I had some drag bars on top of 4" risers for the past 2 years, not a bad position while riding, plus I kinda liked the way it looked

But then I decided let's see if the stock buckhorn handlebars would go on top of those risers, WITHOUT lengthening the cables or wires. So Sunday morning I set out on that mission

Wel they did!!!
I had to jockey them around a little for installation but once everything was where it had to be located, no problems!!
Its freaking great, the ride position is a bit more comfortable to ME, and my hands are the same level as my chin! Nearly APE HANGERS!!
On a REAL positive note, the mirrors NOW actually give good view of what's be hind me, well sometimes ya need to know what and how close things are behind you.lol :o
