Default anyone running Dirty Bird Hot Rod bars ??

I have 14inch apes right now, I love the look and the way they handle. But Im getting fed up in seeing almost every other RK in ym area rocking the same thing.

These bars are next on the list for me or beach bars but really leaning towards these Hot Rods.

My bike isnt a big wheel bagger and it wont become one, Ill be doing a 21inch fornt end but thats it.

Anyone have these bars on a stockish Rk ?

Trying to see what itll look like but all the bikes with these bars have 26-30inch wheels !

I am but on a '15 RG. I had drag bars on my last 2 HD's and there just comfortable to me. I can say that there comfortable and have rode 275 miles in a day w/ no problem or discomfort, handle great and feel I have more control over the bike. I have 3000 miles so far w/them and wouldnt have another handlebar on the bike. Great product by Dirtybird, flawless chrome and welds.

Hope this helps with the handlebar decision..

I had these wide beach bars on my RK. Like the apes better for riding in city traffic. I have them sitting in the garage if you want more photos or measurements

thanks guys

@Secondwind I love my apes, I rode cross country, 7000miles in 9 days and was comfortable the whole time.

@jackpot Johnnie, how wide are those and whats the pullback? They look awesome, but Id be concerned about sitting up "too" straight. I currently ride slighty hunched over and love it. How were those bars riding 2up ?
