Hey skulls,

Welcome. Not sure if you are interested, but there's at least three other OC guys on here (me, Moedad and OC Hoosier) and a guy from LA that rides 1000 miles or so every weekend (busyweb). Moe and I did one ride together down Ortega a few weeks back.

Did you remove the extra seat? Also, what are superbike bars...

Like the bike, it looks just like mine!

Welcome to our humble abode! :cool:

Nice LOOKING bike but I personally don't understand the current facination with drag bars.......especially not on a cruiser-style bike. Is it really more comfortable for you? Are you a tall person with long arms ?? My opinion is, no doubt, skewed because I am neither !!

It is a lot more comfortable to me. It forces a more aggressive riding posture and I think it gives more control than the OEM bars.

It is all about personal preference though. I personally like the more "cafe" look and feel of a drag bar on a standard/cruiser frame like the GZ, but I also love a more aggressive ride as well.

That is a very slick looking bike.

Thanks for the compliments! I'm 6'0 with long "gorilla" arms, so its pretty comfortable.
