Here’s the new Harley Fused bars, 1.25” slimming down to 1” at the grips and riser. Bikes in lockdown at the moment but it is what it is.

I also have a LRS and looking to get the fused bars. Do you have part numbers or lengths of the cables you needed to extend everything?

I'm 5'7 and put 10-inch bars on my 2014 Slim. I regret the height. should've gone at least 12.

hi, the bars looked great when we held them up to the bike. It’s taken a few months to get the parts to the dealership and even then we needed to swap the front brake hose. This delayed the build and now the bike is locked down at the dealership few a few weeks!

I have used the Arlen Ness “Method” 2.5” riser and had two 0.25 spacers made to raise it out of the way of the speed screen rear cover. I’m short so you may just have a taller riser. At 5’6” my arms will be horizontal. When I get the bill I'll post the parts list for you.

my bars and risers are stock right now. Do I need to change the risers to run the fused bars? I’m 6’ and doing rough measurements holding my arms in a comfortable spot and having someone measure the distance to the stock risers I feel good going with the fused bars. I know the upper clutch cable, turn signal wires, and brake line will need to be extended/longer replacements. I just don’t know what length they need to be. It gets a bit confusing looking through all the options. A parts list after your build would be very helpful!

does the stock fairing get in the way with stock risers using fused bars?

not sure where you live but hopefully it’s not riding weather while your bike is in lockdown. I’m in NY so there’s too much salt here to want to ride.

Any recommendation?

Aside from clutch and brake line, what else do I need?

I've gotten the above from my FLHC after I went to 16"

Where can I get extensions for switches, throttle and lights?
My only dealership doesn't have them in stock.
10" apes...
Are these handlebars still available? What color? Do you know if they are compatible with 2016 fls slim?
