Frank!
welcome aboard.
I did a wee search for you. Ringadingdoo fitted these to his Scrambler, but not without some grief.
here's the thread: http://www.triumphrat.net/twins-tech...d-cowboys.html
ps. guys, the rest of youse. Frank and I rode Triumph Tiger Cubs together back in the 70's.

re
Frank i believe scrambler bars are 7/8's so no as the nh westerns are 1inch .
The cables were not a problem as these are sold as a kit by nh.
You could try risers , have you moved the stock bars forward yet , so that the rise is in line with the forks ?? this gives a much higher look to the bike .
I am thinking of higher bars for 09 bonneville , so any pics from fellow members with risers and higher bars would be welcome also

Try the ROX Speed risers. They allow a whole range of adjustment, and are not hard to install once you know the trick. No cable changes needed.

Black Scrambler Bars...
Over a year ago I found perfect bars for my scrambler. 7/8", same rise, same spread, slightly more pull back, black (matches my 07 motor). They were from Dennis Kirk, brand MOOSE, ATV HIGH. Best part, they were less than $20. I posted a few pics back then.
