Well, I can already tell from the posts there are plenty of opinions here. Hopefully, there is room for one more to offer their own sarcastic wit & wisdom here.
bennybmn, I actually do recognize your name, but I'm not sure how many members here co-exist on T-Rat, so I thought I hang out in both lands.

As for the bars, I am not sure what they are. I found them at a small repair shop in Virgina. They aren't exactly what I wanted, but the price was too good to pass on. They are 1"Diam/ 30"Wide/ 7"Rise/ 5"pullback. I found studs that are 1/2" thread on one end & 10mm on the other. This allows a "stock" HD bar to bolt direct to the America triple tree with no drilling.

I made the light bar myself out of 2" Aluminum strip which I found at Lowe's. I had never done anything like this, and was pretty much winging it. I cut out 67mm semi-circles to fit around the fork shrouds and cut a "V" groove behind where I wanted the sides to bend at. I should have heated the aluminum more because there is a small bit of cracking on this bend when you look close. I finished the front as a separate piece & fitted it in. After that, I polished it's butt off.

The lights are all Kuryakyn Halogen Silver Bullets, small amber in front & large red in rear. The rears are installed in place of the last bolt on the fender chrome. I had to drill the hole out to 5/16". I am considering the run/turn/brake modulator, but haven't decided if I will replace the stock tailight & license bracket with something else, or bob the fender & install the run/turn/brake modulator using only the two Kuryakyn lights for all signals.
