Drag bar look.. Barons or Yamaha Fat T bar 3 Months, 1 Week ago  
Im looking for a bar aggressive look but dont want to be uncomfortable.. I dont do real long rides tho .. The stockers arnt bad im 6'3 .. I really like the Fat T bar by yamaha or the Barons Radius drag bars.. Im sure there are some of you guys here running them.. What ya think? Would they be good for someone 6'3 would you recommend anything else? It says stock cables and everything will fit. Just wanted to hear some opinions before I buy them. I did a search and saw some stuff but want to mostly hear about the fitment to tall/big guys.If any of you have any photos please post.

Re:Drag bar look.. Barons or Yamaha Fat T bar 3 Months, 1 Week ago  
I found my bars on ebay. I got the risers and bars as a set for $150.00. I love them. The risers are 8" and the bars are 1 1/2" thick and I think 28" long. Great quality, nice chrome. I am 601 and have no problems at all, it is actually the most comfortable ride ever. I will try and get better pics for ya and a link.

I've got the yami bars. I am about 5'10" and they are comfortable. I would guess that for someone taller they would be even better.

I have the Baron's T-Bar. It's pre-drilled for internal wiring.

I don't believe the Yamaha bar is pre-drilled.

Ive had the Yami drag bars for over 4 years. I'm 6'4" and they are great on long rides. They change the whole attitude of the bike.

Re:Drag bar look.. Barons or Yamaha Fat T bar 3 Months, 1 Week ago  
What were they like to put on? Dealership told me 4 hours labor? Do all the stock wiring/parts fit? I have a guy on r* riders forum with a very nice set of Barons radius inferno bars.. There 33" wide, 7 1/2 tall and sweep is 7 1/2.. I dont want to get them if I have to change out a bunch of stuff the bike is brand new im just slowly adding things I want. If the stock cables and brake lines fit that would be great.. He said it is pre drilled already with a hole for a tach also. Do 1" grips fit ? The bar is 1 1/4 thick barons site says.. Im looking at some ISO grips or some barons billet grips.
Thanks for the help
