Finally got around to getting a new camera. Here is a picture of the drag bars that I installed 2 mos ago.
- 4" risers of ebay
- 27" harley drag bars off ebay
The whole swap cost less than $100 bucks and about a day of work.
Sorry it so dark in my garage.

YOU CAN INSTALL CERTIAN DRAG BARS ON THE FACTORY RISERS. YOU JUST HAVE TO TILT THE GRIPS UPWARD UNTIL THEY CLEAR THE TANK. I JUST CHOSE TO GO WITH A 4" RISER FOR A DIFFERENT LOOK.

Looks great... those 4" risers are perfect.
Howzit feel? Could you do a gas tank's worth of steady riding?

Ya know, I'll have to get back to you on the comfort. My old shadow aero had apes and I kinda liked those. It is too cold, wet, snowy, salty to ride in massachusetts. I just flipped my vespa scooter that had bars silmilar to this setup. On the vespa I liked riding with my a** more to the rear of the bike (on the passenger seat to be exact) and my arms fully extended. I think that this setup will work, I just wish I could move the savage seat back about 3-4 inches. But we'll see.

I watched Easy Rider the other night.
I think Dennis (s.i.c. Denise) Hopper would dig 'em.

Cool looking Bars Nightrain question. Did you have to change your clutch and front brake cables if so what length did you have to get.

Didn't have to change any cables. There is a tad more slack than before, but barely noticeable.

I have 7/8" MX bars on KLX, they are 33" wide with 1.5" o.d. grips.
I like the wide bars cos I'm quite a big guy, 6 foot 3 and 210 with kit.
