Love these bars
Shipped very quickly. Love the bars. They were very easy to install (2001 Kawasaki Vulcan 800) and I’m happy with how they turned out. Would definitely buy again from this website. Cheers!!

Good Quality
I bought these Biltwell 1" apes abit over a week ago .... I used the blacked out finish that would compliment the blacked out forks and trim on my bike. The only thing I needed to add was a new +6" over stock clutch cable and an extended front hydraulic brake line hose. Bars went in effortlessly and look and feel awesome .

Biltwell 1" Black Ape Handlebars
Purchased a pair of Biltwell Black 1" ape handlebars for my 02 Dyna Fxd, bike looks and handles great, easy install with minor help. Lots of positive feedback. No time for pictures, too busy riding with my new Biltwell apes.

Questions
What’s the size of the clamp area my current bars are 2”x5”
The center width will be 5 1/4 in. and 1" diameter.

would these bars fit a 2013 suzuki boulavard c50
If your current bars are 1" then yes they will. Keep in mind that these have a 12" rise and may require longer throttle, brake and clutch cables along with extended wires from your hand controls.

Do you offer these bars dimpled ?
These bars come in a dimpled format, as one can see in the product's description.

These bars can be jnternal wired?
The smooth bars cannot be internal wired. You would need drilled/ slotted bars for internal wiring.
