Default BR Custom Bars

Looks good. That front fender sure makes that front wheel look small.

Glad to see you finally got to try them out on a ride. Yours Look good in my opinion lining up with the forks.

Thanks for your feedback as well. It helped making my decision easier. I have mine on order now.

Here are some picks of the completed setup with wheel / brake / fork mods, Traxxion Dynamics install, BR custom bars, Carl Brouhard floorboards, shift / brake controls, and a few Eddie Trotta pieces. Turned out pretty well I am done until next winter.....at least that is the plan.
Those bars look great. Something I would like. After looking at your arms stretched out, it looks like you need a bit more pull back to be more comfortable for long rides. Would you agree? I think I'm going to go your route but 12" with 2" additional pullback. Thanks for posting.

How tall are you?

Not sure yet about comfort on long ride - leaving for daytona bike week on saturday - that will tell the tale. I am 6'4" and have a seat that puts me 2 inches back from stock. Also note that my bars are pushed slightly forward from being lined up with the forks.

Getting 12's would work for sure. I wanted to eliminate cutting the wires. Getting 2 inches more pullback?? Would that effect wrist angle? Not sure - suggest calling BR for more info.

Just returned from Bike Week in Daytona - 2,000 miles round trip from Indiana. Bars were a very comfortable height and pullback was also good (for me).
