Construction: 7/8-inch O.D. x 0.120"; wall seamless 4130 Chromoly tubing. All bends are created with internal mandrels on a CNC bender to reduce flat spots in the radiuses. For exact measurements, please click the Specifications icon in the photo album.

Fitment: These bars are slightly wider than many stock bars, please consider turning angle and tank size/mounting before ordering.

Black ED: The black finish on Biltwell handlebars and risers is called Black Electrostatic Discharge or BED, and is applied the same way chrome plate is applied to raw materials. Like chrome plating, powder coating and standard paint finishes, BED requires periodic care to maintain its lustre. Soapy water and a soft cloth will remove surface dirt from BED, and common automotive waxes and polishes work great to protect the finish.

A Few Words on Knurling: We don't knurl our bars because doing so reduces the surface area where the handlebar makes contact with the risers, thereby compromising clamping power. Stock and aftermarket steel risers commonly found on cruisers and custom big twins have a material density 4 times greater than aluminium. This density doesn't let knurling bite into the riser material, which in turn compromises clamping strength.
