You can say that again. When I look back to pre-WWII bikes there are a lot of custom bent and manufactured bars. I've always wondered why this practice stopped. I'm sure part of it was cost and part was warranty issues but custom bent bars are all but gone. Anyone have any info on the fall of custom bent bars. thanks, Brandon"monkeyman"Ives SB, CA
