I've got a Kuwahara 24, which I picked up in Sweden, and those cruiser bars are probably harder to source that the f&f. And they ride so nice. I gave up looking for the bars and made do with Redline forklifter cruiser bars that came with mine.

Thankfully the look matched the rest of my collection quite nicely ;)
