Softail Handlebars

Handlebars for the Harley-Davidson Softail, '84-'17. Bars change the bike's whole character more than any other single part you can bolt on.

What Is In This Collection

Handlebars, handlebars and risers and ape hanger handlebars, from LA Choppers, Thrashin Supply, Burly Brand, Slyfox, Biltwell and ODI.

Softail Fitment

Softail covers '84-'17 - FXST, FLSTF Fat Boy, FLSTC Heritage, FXSTB Night Train, FLS Slim and FXSB Breakout. These are cable-throttle bikes. 2018 and up is the M8 Softail, a different platform - see M8 Softail Parts.

Years that change what fits:

2000 - the Softail took the Twin Cam, a year after Touring and Dyna.
2018 - the Milwaukee-Eight Softail replaced both the Softail and the Dyna on a new frame.

Diameter, Then Dimensions, Then Cables

Diameter first: 1 inch and 1-1/4 inch bars need matching risers and control clamps, though many 1-1/4 inch bars step down to 1 inch at the ends so stock controls still fit. Then dimensions: rise, width and pullback together decide reach, and a tall ape that looks right may put your hands above your shoulders. Then cables: anything past a couple of inches of extra rise needs extended lines and wiring, so budget for a handlebar install kit at the same time.
