Blacksmith Posted October 20, 2011 Share #1 Posted October 20, 2011 I know everyone mostly is useing the Flanders handlebars to up grade there bike. A buddy of mine saw these,Baron Custom Accessories 1 Inch Touring Handlebars. on CruiserCustomizing and is thinking of trying them. The ad said it gives 2 1/2 inches more pull back than stock. but the pull back is 16 1/2 inches. Seems to me that that is the same as the stock bars. I think I'll stick with the Flanders myself, but Id like to find out so my friend doesn't cost himself a bunch of money thanks in advance Blacksmith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TearlessTom Posted November 6, 2011 Share #2 Posted November 6, 2011 (edited) I have the Barron handle bar, I caught it on sale so I gave it a try. It does give more pullback, It seems to be a bit wider stance than stock but it measures the same. I just measured it against my stock bar which is now installed on my HD Road Glide. The one I have measures 2 inches more pull back. It works for me. http://i180.photobucket.com/albums/x249/TearlessTom/BarronHandlebar-1.jpg Hope this helps Edited November 7, 2011 by TearlessTom Wrong Measurments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TearlessTom Posted November 7, 2011 Share #3 Posted November 7, 2011 Ooops I made a mistake on the above post which I have edited and corrected now. Initially I said it was 2 inches wider but after I thought about the install on my HD I remembered that I had to cut 1 inch of each end because the cables were not long enough so in reality it is the same width as OEM but about 2 inches more pull back. Hope this didn't mislead anyone. Sorry... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
