I rented a 2016 RG a few weeks ago and while kind of comfortable, overall I wasn't impressed with the new Buckhorn style bars. Too much pull back for me and not conducive for good handling. Maybe it's a matter of acclimation?
How do Road Glide owners feel about them?

 

I liked them, I just didn't like the aesthetics of them. I swapped out for the Arlen Ness 11" Modular. I like the adjustability of them the Ness Modular), only thing I'd change is maybe add an inch taller but it's not a make or break it problem.

 

Harley Davidson knows that every nine hundredth customer is going to keep the stock handlebars. With those numbers, I doubt they give two wet camel farts about which bars go on which bike.

Lousy bars sell handlebar upgrades.

Handlebars get changed about as much as pipes. I would have sooner kept the pipes than bars though.

 

I've kept going with mine for over a year but have some new bars on order now..

 

I rolled mine forward a bit, but I'm pretty happy with the stockers. I wish the wrist angle wasn't so tight, but other than that, I'm okay with them. Not worth $400 to change them.

 

I rolled mine forward also and now love them. They are like mini apes and it took 5 minutes to do.

 

I stuck with them for about 15 months on my 2015 RGS. Finally put some 14" Malo Bars on this weekend. Probably my favorite mod on the bike.

 

Waiting on mine to show up.

 

I went with a 12" malo on my RG, so much better for me. Brother rolled his stock bars forward and likes it, I don't as much but will admit it's better.
