Handlebars for Classic Springer Fork

Standard Handlebars

Standard Handlebars

Reproductions of the handlebars for Classic Springer forks. Standard bars were the typical equipment for bikes with sidecar, Servi-cars and Police models. Compared to the Speedster it is wider, higher and sweeps back farther for a more upright seating position which makes it also a good choice for two-up riding with buddy seat, because it doesn’t hit the rider’s leg in turns. Available with inline center pieces for Big Twins 1936-45 and 45” models or with offset center pieces for Big Twins 1946-49.

Standard Outside Cable Handlebars

Standard Outside Cable Handlebars

These Springer handlebars correspond to the Standard type by shape, however, they differ in that they feature straight tubing on both ends in order to accept 1974-up clamp type outside cable throttle controls.

Buckhorn Handlebars

Buckhorn Handlebars

Reproductions of the handlebars for Classic Springer forks. The Buckhorns are Custom bars which range in between the Speedster and Standard by width, but are higher and and sweep back farther than the Standard. Recommended for motorcycles equipped with buddy seats, because they don’t interfere with rider’s knees in turns. Available with inline center pieces for Big Twins 1936-45 and 45” models.

Speedster Handlebars

Speedster Handlebars

Reproductions of the handlebars for Classic Springer forks. Speedster bars are the choice for sporting solo bikes. Available with inline center pieces for Big Twins 1936-45 and 45” models or with offset center pieces for Big Twins 1946-49.

Speedster Hollywood Handlebars

Speedster Hollywood Handlebars

Reproductions of the handlebars for Classic Springer forks. Speedster Hollywood bars feature a crossbar which was intended for mounting accessory lights, but many bikers liked the style without lamps, too. They are the choice for solo bikes and provide a sporting, forward leaning seating position.

Wrecking Crew Tramp I Handlebars

Wrecking Crew Tramp I Handlebars

The shape of these handlebars is inspired by the legendary Tramp I, a Knucklehead drag bike built by S&S founder George Smith in the early Fifties. They feature distinctive, pulled-down tube ends. This feature helps so much when crouching down on the tanks during your quest for top speed. The selection includes handlebars for stock spiral grips thru 1948 and handlebers which feature straight 1” tubing on both ends so they will accept 1974-up grips and clamp type throttle controls.

Faber Cycle Flanders #0-HD Handlebars

Faber Cycle Flanders #0-HD Handlebars

A top notch Old School accessory. Beautiful reproductions of the legendary handlebars which were available as aftermarket accessories during the 1940’s and 50’s by the Flanders company. Flanders doesn’t make them anymore so the talented US-manufacturer Tom Faber filled the gap. Combined with Stelling & Hellings risers and upper fork clamp (available separately) they allow for a more upright seating postion which many riders prefer for improved comfort and control. However, they work with most handlebar risers and clamps.

Faber Cycle Stubby Speedster Handlebars

Faber Cycle Stubby Speedster Handlebars

Tom Faber’s less wide custom version of the #13 Flanders handlebars with extra short spirals to have a very sporting and overall compact look. Use your shortened stock rubber grips or fabric tape on the spiral ends.

Stelling & Hellings Speedster Handlebars

Stelling & Hellings Speedster Handlebars

Custom handlebars for Classic Springer forks with more rise and pullback for a very relaxed seating position. Just like stock handlebars they mount directly to the fork, without any risers or additioneal clamps.

Hillclimb Handlebars

Hillclimb Handlebars

For Hillclimb races the riders preferred a forwarded seating position, so they bent or tilted their handlebars accordingly. A handlebar rise of about 4” was also popular. These Custom Springer handlebars sport such a forward tilted and raised design, which provides a comfortable riding position especially for taller riders.

Cannonball Lane Splitter Leaf Spring Handlebars

Cannonball Lane Splitter Leaf Spring Handlebars

Erwin "Cannonball" Baker would have liked these unusual handlebars during his grueling transcontinental rides in the 1920’s and in fact the design derives from this era when the first leaf spring handlebars were installed on motorcycles. The idea was to take some vibration out of the bars and add some flexibility when hitting bumps or potholes. However, we admit that you cannot expect too much in that sense. What the Cannonball bars can offer are stability and a unique style. They are made by a skilled craftsman in very limited numbers in a small manufacture in Italy so you definitely won’t see them often on other bikes. Choose from narrow Lane Splitter or wide El Jefe handlebars. All versions feature 1” Ø tubular ends to accept common controls and grips and a 2-hole fixture to mount custom headlamp/instrument brackets. Mounting hardware is not included and must be purchased separately.

Do-It-Yourself Springer Bar

Do-It-Yourself Springer Bar

Back in the good old times it was very common that bikers bent springer bars to their personal likings. These handy kits, consisting of center piece and two straight bars, allow to build custom-made springer handlebars. Just bend the bars and weld or brace into the center piece. Components are available separately, too.

Triple clamp integrated: Handlebars for Springer Forks

Original handlebars from the late 1930s and 1940s - and still for 1950s Servi Cars - for both inline and offset forks, for 1200 and 1300 Flatheads, Knuckleheads and 45” models, have 4-3/4" center spacing of the two holes for the fork tubes in the central casting. The hole in the center for the steering stem varies by model year. So do the dimensions (pullback, height, width), of course. To hjelp with finding the handlebar that suits your preferred seating position, we show drawings with the most important dimensions in the store.

But since you can't really please everyone, no matter how many parts and reproductions you offer, there is of course a distinctive selection of custom handlebars for Springer forks, e.g. the Flanders reproductions by Faber, which require special triple clamps and risers. Or the way cool leaf spring Lane Splitter bars by Cannonball, which are made like the legendary Gazda handlebars from the 1920s. They bolt directly onto the fork with additional triple clamps.
