It's been a while that I've build a bike ( wasn't in the mood lately for building bikes).
Last weekend I started on this bike and it came out great, I'm 200% satisfied!

these bars are Vector Unlimited bars (were nos with orginal chrome/black Unlimited decal)
I've read somewhere that Bob Haro bars are little different (don't know if that's true).
I've another nos "Vector Bob haro" style bar in chrome and those are totally different, supose it's a copy because no decals on that bar.
The copy bar don't have the same bend forward like the Vectors (less bended forward) and they look smaller, and no knurling (or how to say those lines in the metal?) on the steering tube.

if you google "vector unlimited bars" then you can find some info.
some say it's depending where they were made?
the bob haro replica bar was already in the 1983 ads,.
i'm a little confused now too and would like to know the details about unlimited and bob haro bars.
