maybe he has a problem with weight on his wrists? Shouldn't think it would be too difficult to return it to originals. The rest of the bike looks pretty amazing though

I feel your pain Jim....I couldn't find the chromed gear stick tho, so it may be a joke?

Or sweaty armpits ?

I've often looked at those sort of bars and thought it must make the bike darned hard to steer - even just hanging on would be difficult

Shit if you want a dodgy Ducati go buy an Indiana FFS

:sick: I have problems with my wrists - I ride a cruiser with standard (Normal or whatever) bars and have no problems.
I think you are trying to be nice here - ape hangers are just wrong, the only time they are cool is on a small child's bicycle.
(Not that I would say this to a biker with ape hangers) :innocent:

Used to see one like that on Chch with a gang member riding it, but that was a decade or so ago
