I have tried two sets of bars on my ultra and still have not found what I am looking for. One set of ergo back bars and the Harley pull back bars. I decided to make my own. I cut up a set of stock ultra bars and modified them to where I think I will be comfortable. I ordered some 1 1/4' stock and started making my own bars. I turned down the ends to accept one inch stock bars. I am using the middle part that clamps to the triple tree and the throttle and left handgrip part from stock bars. I am making the part that goes between the two. The first two pictures show the lathe and the adapters I made to fit the one inch pipe. The next one shows the jig I made to get the angles correct and the last is a shot of the bars half done in a vise at about the angle they will be on the bike. The bars will look like they are 1 and 1/4" because you wont see any of the stock one inch bar after the controls are on and the grips.
Looking at that last picture. I moved the bars down in the vise after that shot. They are not at the riding angle in that picture. Oops.
