Dublaa, I looked in your album and I love the looks of your bike. Very tasty. Can't wait til I need tires so I can get some white wall.

Brian, can you describ the feel and position with those Wild One's. I would assume you sit bolt upright, but don't know. I'm 5'10".

I'm 5' 10" also. My hands are positioned a little more than shoulder width apart and lower than the stock bars had them before, the tops of my hands are turned just a little outward (not quite parallel with the top of my forearms),but not too much that's it uncomfortable, my arms are notextended fullyand I do sit upright. Now, I do have the rider's backrest on my Mustang seat and it's adjustable forward/back and I can lean back and still ride comfortably. To date, the bars are the best mod I have done to my ride. Even better than the Mustang seat.

 

Thanks Brian. That is pretty much what I was looking for. A good description. I have Fat Boy bars on now that took a couple ofdays a few hundred miles to get used to. Now they feel pretty good but I think something like yours might be just the ticket, to use a phrase from my grandfather. What distributor. did you use?

 

I ordered them directly through Wild 1. Check this out though. Wild 1 has some bars on sale that have "blems" (imperfections) in them. When I received mine, they had taken a marker and circled the blem so that I could see where it was. It was the smallest imprefection and it was underneath the left part of the bars. Once I removed the marked circle, I had some difficulty seeing the blem. Here's the linkto their discounted/blem barshttp://www.wild1inc.com/specials.html Just to give you an idea of what I saved, the WO518's retail for $204.95 and I paid a little over $150.00 (after shipping costs) for my "blem" 518's. Ask to speak with John, he was VERY helpfulin getting me the right bars for my ride.

 

Thank you Brian. I will check it out.

Check out the WO513 8.5" Baby Apes as well. Those were my second choice. I think they look good on a Heritage.

 

Here is mine on the day she was born (with the proud Papa)

 

Here's a couple of me ridin' on the Tail of the Dragon...






Yeah...I was ridin' slow! I had just seen the aftermath of a Car-Bike crash, had been almost run off the road by a sport-bike that was over in my lane on a curve while he was passing a car, etc... [&:]
