RSTD with Ape Hangers

[MooSSRC]

I have a 2005 RSTD with a fairing attached. Love this bike however the handlebars are uncomfortable for me, my lower back tends to ache as I fell like I'm hunched over. All of my past bikes have had either mini apes or up to 14 inch apes. I have performed several searches in attempt to research the possibility. My question is with the Fairing attached would there be any issues with the type of bars I can purchase? Is there anyone on the forum that has made this modification and willing to share some information. I'm not going more than 10 in so realistically its a mini ape.

 

Thanks for the help

The most popular aftermarket bars are Flanders Part#650-08783 height 9" width 33" pullback 18.5" This works with the factory setup, not sure about the fairing you have.

I did this to my bike. I love it. Hope this helps. The stainless lines really made a noticeable difference also. A lot of good information here from some knowledgeable people. It is a thread I started. Look in my profile for threads started by me. FuzzyRSTD
