    looking for handlebars closest to stock

    I have Daytona bars on my '83 1100E and they're too uncomfortable. So I bought a Nighthawk style bar online, and I when I got it I realized it's for a cruiser. So I'm looking for a stock bend. The LTD style looks like it might be close. any ideas?

      thanks. I know I could buy stock bars but I was hoping for something a little cheaper. bikebandit has a bunch of bars for like $25, I just don't know which bend to buy

              I have a set of 850G bars that are like new. The stock bars are better quality than the aftermarket stuff that sells for $25. Drop me a PM if you want to discuss.

                How do you paint chrome and make it stick? Do you hit it with a sander or a sand blaster first, or can you acid etch it or....?
