Haven't done much ridin lately what with the 10 week debacle getting a rear sprocket and repairs on a budget after the encounter with the deer in Canada so took some pic's thismorn out at Carter's beach, Westport where home is for the mo... She's done 45,000km, thrown me twice, crossed the Pacific twice not to mention commin from England to NZ in the first place... and quite rough in places so no closeup's, but I luv her all the same, she's my rat...
That was a bit dumb of me, forgot to load to photopost first...

Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.

Are those blacked out bars from an America or after-market?

Aftermarket. 1 1/4" x 38" wide... I got them here in NZ from http://www.thehandlebarco.co.nz/ no.134... Flat an wide....
Surely you have a huge selection of bars in the States...

Would really like a blacked out whole front end, time to do it is when steering head bearings need replacing I suppose...

Those fat bars are sweet; they add more to the overall look of a bike than an additional 1/4" diameter would suggest.

I like these fat mini apes:

If I don't like the Speedmaster bars I might have to look for something like that.
