Handlebars?

[RVH]

Second question of the day......I'm 6' and thought I had a pretty good reach but find that I'm having to reach slightly to keep a good grip on the bars. Feel like I"d be more comfortable with another 2" back and up. My bars measure just shy of 9" from the top of the tree to the bend in the bars.(06 Mastiff) Are there any stock BD bars that have more height and pullback?

maybe a push seat?

late 06 model mastiff bars or 07 are a couple in more pullback.

I dont think you will get 2" but try some spacers
Skully made some for his K9.

Thanks guys......The push seat would work except for the fact that I'm already considering extending my forward controls. Where would I find specs for the different bars? Not many BDs to compare mine to near me.

if you have a dealer , just take a tape measure! & check all the bikes out!

Take some foam out of the seat. Ask the Seatmaker about this.

See if you can find a Ridgeback and measure them - I believe these may be what your looking for.

RVH...I too have the same issue...I ride a 04 Ridgeback and have to lean slightly forward especially when making a turn...I found that the 08 Ridgeback has bars that come back almost 3.5 inches further back. My problem is it will cost almost $700 to change the dumb things.
Hope this helps.

Thanks. Would just run to the dealer buts hes over an hr away and I've been real busy lately........and for $700, I'll just keep reach'n till I get a K-9.
