Default Handlebars finally done.

I finally finished the handlebar swap. I got
Flanders Super Glide® Type: #650-08231
Measurements Height: 6.5"
Pullback: 11.75"
Center: 7.5"
Width: 30.5"
Diameter: 1"
On ebay for $60 including shipping. They were knurled and dimpled. Knurls wound up between forks and the dimples were not in the way of drilling. Had to drill a hole on each side for controls. Had to remove the wire cable holder to make all cables reach without any lengthening. Had to rerout speedo cable. I am 6'4", 230 and with new bars I finally got to ride cruiser style. The pullback is a bit more than I'd wish for, but overall extremely happy I did this mod.
