08 RG Bars
I've read about the Heritage and other bars for the older bikes Has anybody found a good bar that adds a couple inches of height and rear extension for the new RGs? As always, thanks!

I have run both 513's and 517's on my RG - Both are great (I am 5'6") for the past year I have had the 517's and they are great. Wild1's

Not sure but with the FBW setup, I haven't read about anything at all being available yet. You may want to check into it with your dealer and while you're at it, sit on a WG & Heritage and get a feel for the bars. That's just what I did last week and I am going to go with the Heritage bars.

I am not sure they have any bars to fit the 08's yet. The fly by wire takes special bars I think. T.

You can modify any bar you want to fit 08's. I did just that.

You just have to cut the notches in the end for the throttle sensor and an oval cutout between the knurls for the wiring
