very nice
thanks for the pic
BTW, I deff like the dragbars and taller risers compared to the stock ones.
I did that mod on my America and it makes a huge difference to the feel of the bike

Nicely done indeed
Those ARE stock on the storm. The regular Tbird has the other bars.
Oh, ok. I misunderstood. I've tried to find risers for mine like that, but anything over 6" is rare and even within 6" the choices haven't looked like i like. Then you have the fitment issues. Love the look of my Tbars but unlike most people i don't like the straight upright position. It kills my back at times and i feel much more comfortable with none of that when leaning just a bit forward. my speedy was perfect as that goes.
when I swapped mine over, to buy the speedy bars and risers was going to cost a little over 4 hundy, so I bought aftermarket 4 in riserd to suit HD and a I" dia set of wide dragbars which I cut down a tad for a total of $150.
Only thing was I had to drill the mounting holes in the top triple tree out to 1/2 " to take the risers.

With all the bikes I have owned I have never done any modes to change my sitting position as I always just seemed to fit into any style I had at the time, hmm wait I did change the bars on my Honda 750 to clubmans if that counts
I have changed bars on just about every bike I owned. I put a Sportster bar on my T100. I have not changed bars on my Tiger; but I am looking for something with just a little more pull back.
Funny thing is I have never changed out my shocks either just ride them how they come. The mod I mostly do are my pipes but on the Speedy I had to change out the seat as the standard is bad when it comes to having a pillion
Sportster bars on a Triumph??
Oh the pain of it all
The Sportster bar was cheaper than the exact same 3rd party bar for the Bonneville. I did upgrade the my Bonneville T100 suspension and Gary upgraded the suspension on the T100 I bought for Mae Lyne. The stock Bonneville suspension is adequate; but upgrading transforms the bike. I also changed the exhaust and removed the snorkel.
All kidding aside, whatever makes the bike fit you so you're comfortable is all that counts.
