I got the GRAND PRIX TOURING part #650-04301,I’m thinking the controls might be too close to the tank at full lock,anybody else using this model of Flanders bars and when did a set of handlebars jump up to $140?

I think stock bars w/bar ends are 32" wide, how wide are the Flanders?

about the same time luggage racks and case savers went to $240. BTW oem mini apes for an Indian are $300. Buddy just bought a set. (then he had to buy cables lol)

I’ve got a set of stock bars I compared these Flanders bars to and the bare stock bars are about an inch wider I,think these Flanders bars are 29 inches wide.

I would think you would be ok only 1" narrower.. That's only 1/2" narrower per side.

I think my factory Honda Rebel bars I put on my bike were about $45.

They are a little wider than stock.
