Handlebar Thread - Apes no higher than fairing
#22
Nice lookin bike there SoCal....I have elbow an wrist problems for repetitive motion doing the same job for 25 years so hand position an angle was more important than height. Plus I have shoulder problems so I didn't want to go higher than 10" an the low's were a compromise. Mad River near me has some display bars bolted up on stands so you can check the angles an stuff but last time I checked they only carried HD offerings.

I'm starting my search for some taller bars for my 2015 Limited Low.
I'm tired of the really low stock bars. If I put my hands up onto the tops of the mirrors, it seems to be the perfect height.... The stock low bars have a pullback of 13" and I can deal with about 9-12" give or take. I think I want a bar with less bend or angle to the handlebars. I don't want to go above the fairing.
Talking with LA Choppers they have a new bar called Grande Twin Peaks that have a 10" pullback and wrist angle is 33 degrees...
The width might be an issue since they are 36.5" wide...that's 3" wider than the stock low bars...

Anybody put their hands on these bars yet?
Any other options for what I am looking for?
