I have a set of '83 ElectraGlide bars on my 1500...If you're looking for a bolt on, that's one thing, if you're looking to be unique, that's another...I really don't think that you will have any trouble with the Barons, however, there i one thing to keep in mind when replacing handlebars on one of these critters. The throttle has a small pin in the housing that needs a corresponding hole drilled in the bar, to keep it from rotating. If you have chrome bars, this is a necessity. Stainless bars have more traction than chrome, so the pin can be removed...

   Perhaps you have pictures of the work in progress, and like PC said they should fit front ends are the same.

Cool!  I will have to check the guy's return policy, just in case.

The bike is coming along.

Forks are the same for an 800 and a 1500, as well as a Classic, so I'd say you'd be fine.

Hi,
I'm interested in putting some vintage type handlebars on my 800.  I've found these Baron Nostalgia Handlebar on E-bay that look pretty nice.  Will they fit on an 800?

Thanks!
