Of course there is style, form, looks and comfort.  But then there is crazy and extreme (like the ad says).  I'm thinkin if a guy happened to crash and go flying over these handlebars,  he could end up going from a tenor to a suprano in a heartbeat. :missed:

Not for me.

No doubt they wouldn't make crashing any safer.   :hyst:

If I liked the style, I probably wouldn't hesitate to use them.  But I don't like any of the sharp-edgy-knifey-skully-maltese-crossy stuff.

Yes, it would clash with the Hello Kitty theme.  :teeth:

Those could be called safety bars compared to some of the stuff OCC made with sharp points aiming straight at the rider.  They must make this crap to give people something to talk about,  the Teutul's aren't that stupid...are they?  Rick

hell, those are pretty tame.
as mentioned some "custom" thingies way worse.
remember that gas tank with the 6" saw blade looking edges going all way down it?
yeah, lets slide up that in a hard stop.
once i saw a hatchett welded/used on/as a sissy bar.  and it was a real one.
other sissy bars i just had to shake my head.
sure get hung up on that some day.  later.

OR JUST ABOUT ANYTHING RON FINCH BUILT. HE HAD SOME SERIOUSLY MASOCISTIC GAS TANKS.

:hyst:  Hello Kitty is soft and plushy.  Nothing to get hurt on in an accident.  :hyst:

Yes, they might lay you wide open going through them but I'm thinking there would be a few other injuries to worry about if you do that anyway. Wouldn't run them just because they don't turn me on.
