Hi everyone, I have a 99 Valk Standard that I want turn into a bar hopper, I'm lowering it, chopping the fenders, doing up a custom seat etc.  I want to change the bars to a drag bars or T bars, would like to go to 1 1/4". Can anyone with drag bars installed post a pic and tell we what they are, I had no idea that there were so many choices. I'm 5' 7" and when it's all said and done would like to lean forward a bit to reach them, same stance as Kawasaki Mean Streak or so.

Please post pics dragbar users !!

I made these bars. 1 3/8" but 1 " for the grips and controls. tons of options if you wanna buy, the chubby is a nice choice but i bet you could find a machinist to make them outa Polished SS if You asked real nice for close to the same money...

I'm not clear, are you telling me that the bars in the link are Wild One Chubby's or are you just recommending them. I checked their website and they have many different dragbars, still don't know what to do.

Need more info. Thanks in advance.
