Would like to see a pic of your bars please? Did you have to extend cables?

Look Great and Feel Great!!! Mine are the 12” bars



Dang, I sure do want those, if I can find out about if they have to be leaned in to? I see yours are pulled back, unlike most apes.

I haven't bought the cables yet..I'm finally getting the bike running tomorrow, so I'll figure out what I need and then order it. I just want to ride that bike man..it's been down for a few months so I just want to ride it until I get all the parts..I still need to figure out how I'm going to relocate the indicator lights..I was trying to find a speedo and tac that I could drop into the console that has the indicators but the few that I found were shitty. FXR Division is supposed to send me pics of something they offer..

The Klockwerks fairing has a curve to it so if I pushed the bars forward they would hit the windshield when I fully turned the front wheel. If I had 14 or 16” bars they would probably clear the shield.

The bars are set back enough to where it doesn’t touch the shield. With my height/arm length and the seat I use paired with the forward controls I’m running all work together to fit me just right. I don’t have to lean forward or back. They are just right where I need em. Surprisingly since I’ve added those FXR’s the steering feels lighter and seems to handle a lot better. Could be in my head but I noticed it immediately

Yeah they are the narrowest bars out. The FXR sales rep recommended them to me as a T-bar feel substitute

Yeah, I was thinking about TBars, but didn't like the fact that they blocked the gauges and screen.
Tbars are great for a Dyna or Sportster.

Looking to try a set of 10" bars out, to replace my Factory47 Signature 10" bars. Would you say they are tall for their measurement? I know the only two set on here are 14" and 12" but I think someone mentioned they went from Signature bars of the same height to these. Also could you post some pictures even from the side? Thanks, they look great on the road glide and I like the fact that they are not too wide, bad shoulders and neck, so would mimic the Night Train drag bars.

The 12" bars in the pictures above look higher than 12" to me.
I think I'm going with the 10".
