Really, you're going to argue that T-bars are a Latino thing, and any use of it by "some people of European Ancestry" is cultural appropriation? Hell it started with broomstick bars and dogbone risers. It's hardly a "LA Latino" thing.
Old enough to say I've done it, young enough to do it again.

T bars are not a Latino thing in my neck of the woods. Beach bars are  preferred by the "homies" here...as well as fishtail exhausts, and thickly spoked wheels.

Sorry, I meant to say originated.  But, read into it what you will.  Well I guess I am not as tuned in as you are since ape hanger height T-bars were unknown to me until I saw a Latin motorcycle mag. 

I had T-bars on my mean streak but they were called drag bars.

And not a single person test rode one so they could actually form an opinion.

I've never understood all the Harley posts on this forum. Quite a stretch from a Guzzi.

Not really.  Air cooled, check.  V-twin, check.  Heritage, check.  Nostalgic, check. 

For me they complement each other quite well.
