Flander's....???

[uglydave]

just recieved my bars,right out of the box seeming pretty NARROW!! did anybody feel yhe same way then changed their opion once on bike? wider bars are better for turning,i'm used too the beach bar stylethat were on my previous bikes,the RSTD i just bought in Oct,only logged about 200 miles up here in Buffalo NY,And i bought the bike with ape hangers on it !wanted to go with a touring bar and the flanders were highly suggested! but like i said ..seem kind of narrow..please let me know how u feel about your bar's and what kind your riding with,,these bars costed me $ 280 because i had to go with the 1 in an 1/4 bars because of my risers! once their on i can't send back...thanks for opinions!!!

I just put a set of Flanders on my 06 RSTD and LOVE THEM!!! The pull back and in are so much better than teh stock bars. Every time I rode for several hours, my right shoulder and back hurt something terrible, like a bad burn inside the shoulder.

These new bars have stopped all of that. I love them. I dont know if I would have not sold my scoot if I had to keep the stock bars on there, , it was no fun to ride with them.

Now I love 'em.

Just curious, what is the distance from one side of the bar to the other? I want to compare them to a new pair of Baron's bars. Thanks....
