Has anyone seen any drag bars made from twisted angle iron? I have found ape hangers but want to keep the drag bar look on my speedmaster.

Thanks

Google "twisted bar handlebars". You'll get a plethora of possibilities.

As the dog alludes - it isn't angle iron, but, square stock.

The twisted steel portion are flat stock, square bar (key stock ie;) are not generally (but can be) configured as rectangles, but square with equal sides. The sharp defining of the flat stock s edges suggest, adding cold reduction rolled, to their description as well.

I think I've got a pair just like that, except chrome, around here someplace. I kept them off a chopper I had, long ago.
