Vaquero bars

Bean20547 · 06-07-2016, 06:58 PM

Just bought my vaquero and I have a question about my bar. I want to roll them up but I can't because they hit the faring. So is there a way to push them up without this issue

Call fmb choppers and get there bars that's the best cure

I've searched but has anyone installed the baron bars for the vaquero?

I rolled the stocks up and they worked fine on normal riding. Hard turns while moving it around are an issue. Like others say look into a purchase of new bars. I installed West Coast MX T-Bars and it became a whole new ride.

I even thought about pull back risers but I didn't know if that would give me any more room to move the bars

The FMB bars do look really nice.

Size? And did they work with stock controls?

10.5 all stock hardware brake line has to be turned downwards and is tight but they work and look really good

After looking at the brake lines and clutch on mine, I was wondering ran them in front of the triple tree?

There is no problem with clutch and throttle just the brake line is tight on full lock

Just wondered if wiring was placed inside the bars for that clean look?

I left mine outside didn't wanta mess with the harness but the bars are drilled for them

For the folks that want internal wiring its a lil tough and time consuming , I did it years ago when I customized my 1500 nomad. 9 wires on the left side and 13 on the right if I remember right, some to thing about when you do this is to have a way to disconnect bars and wiring from the bike to access the triple tree ( steering head bearings)
Just thought I would share from my mistakes
Thank god I never need to
