Firebolt handlebar conversion.

[jimmydean]

This might seem a bit backwards, but I just bought an 04 Firebolt and wanted to convert it to use the Lightning bars. Is anyone looking to convert to a Firebolt setup and we could swap?

I was trying to find a Lightning to buy and couldn't, so I bought the Firebolt. I'll be converting it to a Streetfighter, so the first step is the risers. Thanks.

I am also wanting to do the entire frontend swap. I have an STT and I'd love to put the Firebolt front end on it.

Why not just do Crossroads -7 degree bars? They're super easy to install and they look great! If I would have known they were available, I would have bought a lightning instead of a firebolt.

Where are you located?, I'd be interested in doing the swap if you are close by.

I'm doing a bobber/streetfighter hybrid and want to use as many Buell/Harley parts as possible as part of the build process. I haven't decided if I will use the Lightning headlight or the V-Rod headlight yet.
