Renthal Ultra Low Handle Bars - Ride It Moto grips and Levers, $29 mirrors from cycle gear.


Put all this stuff on today - so far so good. love it all --- No issues with anything - but only rode about 10 miles before it started to rain - so cant comment in depth yet.

New Levers - what a difference though - Love the feel of them so far. They are the shorties.

The mirrors seem like a great deal. $30 for the pair - fit great, dont vibrate.... great visibility -

Looking good ! How do those grips feel ? I was wanting some bar ends but didn't want to spend big bucks just in case I didn't like them. Went to Cycle Gear also and love my "cheap" bar ends, no vibration and great visibility for 1 1/2 years now.
 
I actually like the grips a lot -- but like i said, it started to rain so i only felt them for about 10 minutes.

They are thicker than the stock ones.... more of motocross feel (but that could be the wider bar i put on also)

basically all in all, the bike felt more "flickable"
 
Bikes looking good for sure Mace! Nice work!

I guess this is the part where everyone puts your bike under a microscope when you post pics!! :D

So are those gps mounts on your bars where the factory mirros previously mounted?

I've got those exact grips in the garage ready to put on, but I can't decide what bars I want to put on my bike.

Keep us posted on the bars once you get some miles on it. Interested to see how you like them.

I just installed the same exact bars. Do you have a problem with the left controls hitting the airbox as well?

i did at first...... but then i just rotated the bars up -- and moved the controls up a little... and i have full movement both ways... right and left turn.

no rubbing issues AT ALL.

GPS mount? no... just little cover things that went over where the stock mirrors where.

and as far as putting the bike under the microscope.... sweet! i dont mind it - you guys already gave me good advice when i first threw up pictures.. to remove the reflectors and warning labels.

I have to tackle the belt gaurd next....
 
I like the grips. Keep us posted as to how the "grip" is.

On the stock mirror nubs: Those gotta go. They look a little too mutant, or amputated, or something. You can get hole plugs at Lowe's or an auto parts shop that will fit flush in the hole. There's a stock Buell part that is actually cheap, but I don't know how your luck would be having a HD dealer get them for ya.
