Anyone have links to other vendors besides Pingle for wheelie bars on '07-up Sportsters?
hi have not seen a set on a sporty since back in 1995 on a 1200 , but do you realy need them ? , as i went faster than that bike did on a different 1200 sporty with no sissy bars, unless your looking too go under 10 sec's 1/4 mile times
I no longer have a place or the desire to fabricate...this way, when I'm finished with them I can easily sell the set to someone else.
hi if the bars are not made good or set up well , when you need them most they can bend or fold up & then you will smash arse-up , take off @ 6,000 rpm & back flip over , the bad thing is that you have too carry them all the way down the drag strip as well just so you can take off proper , i do 1.5 something 60 ft'er on a stock harley tyre on a stock screaming eagle bike
Got the Pingle bars coming for $353. There will be around 100hp on tap with the 883...probably more to come. If I can do a 1.50 60' first time out I will be tickled to death to say the least.
with about 100hp i don't think you will need them , i did 11.4 sec @ 117 mph on a 91 hp sporty back in 1996 on threaded tyres without no bars on the arse , they only wheelstand on ya when the end of the clutch meets the power , where abouts are or is Rockvale TN, we have Screaming Eagle Drags here in Sydney that we are looking for more people too come & race in
If I can get the little motor to run the 11.50 index I would like to give the SEP class a shot. I'm in the US.
sorry i did not guess that your in the USA, i,am in Sydney Australia, Question , i run a dyna 124 c.i. stock frame treaded rear tyre no wheelie bar @ 10.001 sec @ 137 mph how does that compare with in the USA ?
i was asking if those time's & speeds are up too what a stock type DYNA model bike with a S&S motor are doing in the USA with no wheelie bars on a treaded rear tyre , cheers
