Does anyone know if the bars on a CityX and Ss Long are the same? Not happy with the chrome, think the black would look much better. Also, are the rise and pullback the same on both bars? Thanks!!!

i wondered this before i got my 12, i was looking hard at the CityX. if they aren't the same, they're damn near close. only difference seemed to be the crossbar and paint.

i have no numbers proof though, just impressions from inspecting in dealerships.

Why not ask Daves, one of our sponsors, and an extremely erudite Buell Parts Specialist and wonderful fellow.

That way, if they fit, you can order them right there and then.

I put a cityX bar on my S, it works fine, only slightly different.

If you're happy with the bend, you might consider Powder Coat.
Should be less than new bars...
