What choice do I have, purchased a set of western bars, they are better but not wide or high enough for me. Anyone have bars for sale or photos trying to get bars more like the 1968 bonnie.

I added handlebar risers from newbonneville, did the job for me.

Dear Motolink
How would you compare the western bars ride position to the stock bars, higher, lower, wider?

Chedd, I have not measured them but they may be a little wider other than that they are much the same as stock except I thought a little nicer appearence. There is another type which you need a cable and brake line kit, I think I would have preferred them but will wait to see what feed back I get first.

These are 1" bars - I think originally for the mid 80's dynaglide (hey its what I could find in London Canada ) they are 30" wide and a little higher and further back. Stock cables fit, but I had to bypass the lowest clutch cable loop on the frame. I find them MUCH better. Picture taken prior to installing lay flat bracket.



Cheers

I will measurer mine tomorrow but I think they are 29 insches wide, look very similar to fastfreds, thats the style I want just wider and higher.

Just measured the westerns, 28 inches. I prefer these to the stockers but will keep looking for wider if possible.

Chedd keep in touch.
