Need Handlebars

[ruezier]

Does anyone know of a good shop to have a custom set of chrome handlebars made. I have a 98 Valk and the spread on the handlebars is 33 inches, when making a sharp turn I find myself leaning way over the tank. I'd like a set made with a 27 inch spread.

Thanks

Are you able to cut them shorter? If not email a few places that sell parts. Check Ebay, JP Cycles Etc.
Google Search with a few different terms. Maybe someone is selling theirs. Go on a valk forum, I bet you'll get some good information or even someone with a extra pair.

I assume you have an EZ-steer or rake change to the front end. If not, changing the bar length will increase steering effort.

Valkyrie bars are 1". I have often used this list below to find 'bars that I wanted to put on different bikes. Once you determine what bike matches the bar specs you desire, you usually can find a good used set on ebay.
