Help Determining Bar Dimensions
I'm planning to put 12" bars on my Street Glide, but I'm lost as to the width, pullback and rise I should be shopping for. I'm one of those people who have to try everything on to know what fits. However, the factory bars are VERY comfortable and would be fine if they were just taller. No other changes. Is there a site or spec sheet somewhere on the 'net that shows the width, pullback and rise of the factory bars?
I have extensions on the ends of my grips, so it's not as easy as measuring; I would have to take the grips off to get good numbers. It would be nice if I could find specs on the factory bars, b/c J&P has a $30 coupon good today only.

From the research I've done, you will not be able to get much EXTRA pullback if you install any of the Ape Hangers. Basically they just raise the grips and look cool.

Well, well, well; lookee here. It doesn't go up to my model, but it gives a lot of good information about stock bars on other bikes and goes up to '13 on the FLHX ...

[QUOTE=SoGMostly leverage, but also shoulder comfort for long rides.[/QUOTE]
Im thinking that additional width would increase leverage more than height
The mule mentioned by mr brown was like a sawhorse with multiple mounting points for different bar , seat and peg options for different models
havent seen one in awhile
