Default For those that run with the WO508 Chubby RK Bar ...

Ok, so I'm kinda short (five foot seven-ish) and have a bit of a reach on my heritage bars. My clutch hand gets kinda numb and tingly a bit sometimes. I have the bars adjusted back about as far as I feel comfortable but am thinking about replacing them with the WO508 Road King bar.

The only thing that concerns me is the narrow wrist angle, very 'wheelbarrow-ish'.

Do any of you run these bars and do you find them comfortable?

If not, does anyone have some recommendations for short dude on a Heritage?

I'm 5'8" and the 508's are perfect for me on my Heritage, absolutely one of the best mods I have made
