Yea, I know the design of our front bars leaves a bit to be desired as far as the style goes. You have to keep in mind that these bars were originally designed specifically for law enforcement so aesthetics took a back seat to functionality and strength.
However, with that being said, I've started talking with the owners about letting me head up a project to get some "Canyon Cage" style bars made for the Connie because we've had such success with the current civilian bars. I'm of the belief that if we did offer a lower-profile Canyon Cage type bar, it'd be insanely popular among the Concours riders. I actually feel as if I'm making some progress with the powers that be but projects like this do take some time so I wouldn't hold your breath quite yet.
Although, if any of you are in the Southern California region and would allow us to borrow your 2010-2012 Concours for a single work week (Monday-Thursday) I'm sure that may help get things going as finding a bike to borrow is usually what takes the most time. Also, if any of you were to be so kind, we'd gladly hook you up with a set of the finished product free of charge! =)
EDIT: I also added a few more photos of the rear guard for the 2011 Concours for whoever it was that asked! The photos are taken on a 2010 but these are the same exact bars that fit the 2011.
