    Rivco risers and Standard handlebars for the Touring

    I think this is the solution I've been looking for, for the awkward wrist angle. It's only day one, but I like it so far. It's weird but you feel more balanced and stable through turns with this setup on the Touring. I think the extra leverage you get with your low arm just makes everything...

    These tires of mine... :(

    After much deliberation (it was two-way choice between Excedra Max and Avon), I'm getting Avons. They'll be on the bike on Tuesday, which is nice...it'll be 74 degrees that day!!!

    Southern ride this Spring?

    That stinks... would love to be able to see you Lupe. But happy for you you get to do a nice trip with your family! I'm not sure I can go to this one either. Like you, it is conflicting with a family vacation. Maybe we can think about an Arkansas thing at some point this year.

    Southern ride this Spring?

    Dang it, Ugh. That is the week I spend with my-in laws at the lake (Okoboji) in Iowa. Maybe I'll be able to get in on part of this ride... hopefully. I've been to 30 of these lake weeks in a row... batting 1000. That should buy a bit good will from my wife if I miss part of the lake week...

    Considering a 2020 Rocket 3 vs 2015

    :roll::roll:In a perfect world it wouldn't have to be a choice between one bike or the other. We could all just have a barn full of them like Lupe...

    Handle bars on 2010 Classic.

    Yeah Bunny, I can tell you the Touring bars feel weird on a Touring too. You kind of get used to it after a couple years but never really get to liking the feel of it. I'm about ready to pull the trigger on a standard bar from Spalding... thanks to you that I even know Spalding exists...

    Handle bars on 2010 Classic.

    I think T204539 was superseded by T2043580, but they are the same thing. That's what the guy at Hermy's said. And that geometry looks identical to what came stock on my 2011 Touring. So I don't think that's the solution. I think I need to get the standard, and be prepared to solve cable...

    OK Thanks again for the info Ishrub.

    Handle bars on 2010 Classic.

    I actually just found one off the Just Rockets website, but why does it say "Fits all years except Touring"?

    Handle bars on 2010 Classic.

    Thanks for the info Ishrub. I recently got a T2043580 from Hermy's, and yeah the pullback... It's too much. Too extreme an angle on the wrists. It looks like exactly what's already on my 2011 touring. I'm going to send it back for refund. I want to try something with less pullback to ease...

    Handle bars on 2010 Classic.

    Ishrub could you help me with some research? I don't want to make another mistake trying to buy one of these handlebars. You have any part numbers that correspond to the Standard of the Classic bars you refer to? Better yet, you don't happen to have one left over from you part hoarding days?

    Touring TBars?

    All right. Thanks for looking into it Kevin. I don't know what to think, but they aren't any different than what's already on my bike.

    Touring TBars?

    Hey Kevin, do you the know the Triumph part number for those classic bars you got? I bought a T2043580 thinking that was it, but they are exactly like the bars that are already on my Touring. Going to have to send them back. Back to square one. :confused:
