Sorry to hear about your bar trouble. Easiest way out might be to eBay the bars to a Harley rider, and try again to get what you need. Annoying that you'll probably lose money on the deal though.

You know, I wasn't really paying attention to the dimple (channels) and how they affected the controls when I removed the widowmaker bars from my '99 (Deadly Handlebars thread > Cafe). Since I was removing them, I didn't attempt any adjustments...

But now that you mention it, the bars were at an oddly high rotation, the control levers were in uncomfortable position for me, and the swithches were unnarurally high. Also, the mirrors were at their last bit of movement to get anywhere near a useable position.

If you'll notice, they are "dimpled" bars too...

I guess the lesson here is to be sure and not get the dimple/channel Harley Bars, unless you know for sure that the dimple is at the right attitude. I know from past purchase that you have to watch out for the riser clamp knurling being a bit narrow on the bars; because the Savage's risers are almost an inch farther apart than some Harley. The 32" low-rise on my old '87 have about 1/2" of knurling showing on the inside of each riser clamp. Not a horrible thing, and they fit good and tight, but obviously not a perfect fit. I like them so well otherwise though, that I've decided to live with them.

the buckhorns don't need the dimples either.  but the nipples on the control boxes usually have to be filed off.

Also, some machine shops have knurlers.  The one at my work does.  An angle grinder can be used to put crappy knurls in, but I wouldn't trust that on apes.  Worked fine for me on drags.
