ALPHA MOTO Black 1" Motorcycle Drag handlebar Handle Bar Bars Dimpled 28" Wide Fits For Harley Davidson HD Chopper Customs Custom Sportster Softail Tour Glide Road King Electra and Cruiser Motorcycles

I like the finish, and I like how my bike looks now, and I love how my bike feels and handles, it completely transform the feel of your bike, so it is not only the looks, but also the feel of the bike................ They are not hard to install and they fit like a golve, I had no issues at all. Just use soap water to get the grips in............. These do have dimples of the bottom of each side, a little track is used to help you run the controls wires and not damage them when you tight the lever clamps. Without the dimples it would be almost impossible to run those cables. But the dimples limits the different angles that you could try to find the best fit for your riding style and that is disappointing................ It is not the handle bars fault, it is Harley and they control design that makes no sense............. They have a nice thick gloss finish, but they will scratch with the clamps, so make sure your installation is final so you don't end up with scratches and marks everywhere............... They are perfect in length, just enough to fit all the controls, but they don't feel too wide or too short, they are just right in length.............. The only thing I don't like is that they do have too much pull back, so if you want to set them flat, the controls will hit the tank, so you either have to set them shooting up like a dirt bike, or set them shooting down like a sport/cafe racer bike. If I had to do it over, I would buy a more straight back............... You will have to do a lot of adjusting and fiddling with the clutch cable which ends up being too long, the turn signal cables, those are easy to handle, and the break line union tube which is bent by default but you will have to straighten it as much as possible without breaking it, it is some what of a soft metal so it is not hard to do............. Recommended, you will be amaze at the difference they make.

Great handle bars for the price! The power coating on the bar I got is great. The bar fell off a table (got watch the dog better) not a scratch or mark anywhere on it. Fits perfectly with plenty of clearance (just got to get the angles right) The stock mirrors fit bottom mounted too (close but doesn't hit tank). Got it on a 09 sportster, looks great!

I was very suprised at the quality. It actually weighed heavier than my factory bars. The install on my 2016 883 Sportster went flawlessly. I did not have to use shorter cables or hoses. It takes a little getting used to. I notice that accessing my turn signals takes a bit more effort for my thumbs because of the angle of my hand and the reach of the buttons. I may have to adjust a bit. As far as the bars, they come dimpled and capped and feels heavy and strudy. They are not knurled in the center but they are clamped securely. The paint is not the worst, and there is room for improvement. 4 out of 5 stars here.

Hey,These drag bars were great and simple to install. I spent about 45 minutes on the repair.There are a few things you should pay attention to.First of all, remove the plugs on the end of the bars before installation. They are not necessary and will disallow proper installation of the throttle grip as the plugs don't allow full throttle travel with the factory set up. The plug is bigger than the diameter of the interior throttle handle and it will bind and not allow the throttle to snap back into position.Second, you shouldn't have problems with the mirrors hitting the tank if you aim the bar upward slightly. People also seem to be concerned about the brake line becoming kinked. As you can see from the picture attached the angle it's currently at won't cause any issues. I'm a veteran auto mechanic by trade and I've seen much worse angles on brake lines coming straight from the factory on foreign and domestic cars.You needn't worry. If you decide to angle the bar down further then yes, the brake line will develop more of a bend. But the soft metal of the brake line can be bent slightly if you're careful. It's somewhat forgiving. Don't get crazy.I did not use risers to install this. I had no problems with the factory throttle or clutch cables aside from trying to leave the cap on the bar as I explained above. I didn't buy anything but the bar and some lock tite for the speedometer fasteners. Use sparingly in case you ever want to remove them.Simply remove the control assembly torx bolts, let the mirrors and controls hang off the bike with a towel or fender cover on the tank, use a screwdriver and wd-40 or triflow with a straw to lubricate and remove the left hand grip, then remove the 4 speedometer hex bolts to remove the original bar, and re-install in the reverse order. Before tightening fasteners, sit on the bike and adjust the bar and controls to a comfortable position in which the mirrors will not contact the tank. You're done. Make sure you don't pinch the wires under the controls when tightening them. The bars have cutouts (dimples) for this factor. I didn't notice much of a difference in the reach. They seem comfortable when adjusted correctly.Don't forget to double check your controls. Make sure everything works like it should (blinkers, headlights,etc.) before you ride.The finish will scratch but simply be careful during installation.I think these bars are a vast improvement over the factory set up. The price is definitely right.

I wanted to replace the stock bar on my '10 Harley Davidson xl883n with a drag bar with little pullback. This bar was a perfect fit. The fork turned in either direction with a 1/2 inch clearance of the tank. The finish looks great and I haven't had any issues with it since putting it on. I was nervous about the quality of the product because the price is so low but I can't find anything wrong with this handlebar. Extremely happy with this purchase. I will post a picture.

2001 shadow 1100. Didn't work at all, even though the manufacturer says the will. Quite disappointed, they're in the scrap iron pile now. Save yourself the trouble and spend 150 for a good set of drag bars !

Good paint job. Had to remove paint for the throttle tube because paint was thick which means it will last. Some customizing is expected with universal parts. Good value, seem well made

Looks great but not enough back sweep, looks exactly the same as my chrome one on now except that its black, bit disappointed.
