I sit on my bike and close my eyes...put my hands out in front of me where I think the bars would feel best and realize that I should get a new set of bars. Basically my 05 has stock pullback risers and drag bars, but I feel that I need something that would put the grips in almost the exact same spot they are now, but about 2" higher.
Been shopping around (mostly ebay) and know that on the older Savages with buckhorns you can get away with stock cables/hoses, but not sure how far I can go with my particular setup.
What I'm thinking I want to do is get a set of 8"-10" mini-apes or z-bars and pull my risers apart and mount them down right next to the triple tree like the older Savages.
According to many of my searches on our forum, I think I'm going to be OK with the stock cables, but need some help with some of the other details before I order a set.
1" Diameter
Dimpled or Non-Dimpled? (If dimpled will they still work?)
Knurled or Non-Knurled?
Amount of Pull-Back?
Width?
Rise?
One pair I am looking at is Mini-Apes (Non-Dimpled)(Knurled)(10" Pullback)(32.5" Wide)(8"Rise)
Another pair is Mini-Apes (Non-Dimpled)(Non-Knurled)(7" Pullback)(32.5" Wide)(10"Rise)
Last pair is Z-Bars (Dimpled)(Non-Knurled)(4"Pullback)(28.5"Wide)(10"Rise)
Thanks in advance, especially if anyone else has done this and has some additional advice.
