Mi bike is a FXSTB '09 Night Train. It's handlebar which I believe is a Drag style. Its 1" diameter with about 28" width (tip to tip), pullback 4 to 4.5". Its dimpled for wiring and knurled for centre risers. I am trying to identify it coz its chrome is a darker chrome to all other chrome on the bike, it has a goldie hue and the only bit of chrome on the bike with that hue. It was an import so have no idea on history. And should I replace it I dont accidently want to end up with the very same bar and chrome colour. Perhaps you can see the difference in chrome on pic im attaching. Any assistance appreciated.

 

 

If they look a little Yellow most likely there Stainless Steel

I had a set of bars exactly the same as that, they were meant to be from a Night train, and yes they were stainless steel.

Put a magnet on it, if it doesn't stick to the bars it means the bars are stainless.

A good general rule, I say general as there are a few (very non common) grades of stainless that are magnetic

Used the magnet and it does not stick, neither the risers or top clamp, but chrome screws (top clamp) do stick as top of triple tree and rest. The question is who manufactured the bar. The risers tho dont stick is still the right color chrome but not the bar.

Alloy is non magnetic too which is probably what your risers are, personally I would want steel risers but anyway man as to your actual question I have no f##king idea sorry

They look like stock train bars to me. You say they have the hole on each side for the tie for wires? If SS i would say stock.

Yeah I actually stated that but cheers anyway

After checking thru hundreds of bars online for the record I believe its a Khrome Werks KW-300925. About the only bar with those specs. And cant find another thats dimpled and knurled in 1" up to 31" width. Thought of perhaps going for 1.25" with 1" controls but so far not satisfied my risers will sit properly in given centre space, nor does the slightly fatter bar attract my setup. So if correct doesnt speak to highly of Khrome Werks's chrome.

They look like stock HD stainless too me ?

your right Scotti, could very well be, guess only if I get the Khrome werks one to compare can I be sure. might end up getting it, if sellers can confirm theyre not yellowy.

Get the ones you already have chromed or even powdered black?

Just options instead of buying another unknown....

yeah have been told by someone in the know that the bar is stainless oem bars, so perhaps the Khrome werks will be an improvement with same specs as oem (still want to keep that drag bar look).

Just didn't know if it was worth buying another unknown but hope it works out !

yea not sure worth buying either, but its a bit of an eyesore to my eyes in an otherwise perfect bike. the KW aint that expensive, $54 + 15 shipping (cruisercustomizing having a special on atm) from the states, now that aint much, paid that much for a few chrome caps. making it not worthwhile chroming wud cost more and put bike off the road. thanks all for your input.

ps. was at harley heaven yesterday, 2 bikes rock up, fully fully chromed every nook and cranny, shiny bliss they were and both had off looking chrome handlebars, they wuda spent countless thousands but the handlebar is in crappy stainless chrome, go figure. maybe its just my eyes. and whats with harley's handlebars making them the crappiest around?

Received and installed the Krome Werks handlebar as above mentioned and they are perfect and removes that eye sore. Wasnt an expensive exercise and am pleased with the result. For the record the KW handlebar works out about 1/2" longer either side and does not have drill holes as the OEM for wire retaining clips, but has knurled centre and dimples for enclosing wires into controls.

So are the old ones for sale? They are just what i need for my LSR project.

I notice that the spacers for you indicators are a different hue as wll.

Stirrer!!
