RE: Changing out the bars on my Deluxe. Suggestions?
I looked at various options for my Deluxe just for the sake of an appearance change. Nothing I found looked as good or was as comfortable as were the originals. Just my .02 Good Luck!

Hi GAG,
I just installed Wild1 Chubby bar (#508). 32" wide, 16" pull back.
Comfy for long ride. Good luck with your search.

I went from stock to 16" apes to beach bars and am now back to apes (14" this time). The apes are by far the best and I think they look good too but that is my opinion. I am a MSF instructor and I will say that the apes are way better for teaching the class than the stock bars or the beach bars were. I can put my bike up against any sport bike or any other bike for that matter on the range. Just my .02.

10" mini apes are very comfortable. Don't let the bad (and wrong) reputation that apes are not comfortable keep you from them. They are comfortable. Going to 16" myself. Ask others with apes. I think they'd look good on your bike...

Will have to find a bike with some mini apes to give a try. Not crazy about road king bars.

Just went with wide glide bars and surprised how much I like them. But they are not any narrower and I take a 36 inch shirt sleeve. So maybe not for you unless you pull them way back towards you.
