Hey did the cables work or did you need to get new ones? Did you do the swap or the shop? Costly?
How much pull back did the chubby's provide?

As mentioned, it is WAYYYYYYY relaxing now to ride! Hardly even need my back rest since the bars COME TO ME now. Put my feet up on the hiway pegs and it's almost like I am in my Lazy Boy! My RG is set up for total cruising.
Now when I ride my Deuce I feel like I am on a mini bike.

Congrats on the bike! I just put the police version Heritage bars on my '08 Road Glide. The police version is already set up for the TBW, and the barsbring the controls1.5 to 2" closer. Very comfortable. The adjustable back rest also makes a big difference in comfort for me. I've got a Clearview shield on order.
I'm looking forward to a long road trip this summer!

I have put a little over 2000 miles on mine so far and absolutely love it. I went from a Heritage to this and will never get anything other than the RG. I have not did much to it YET, but am planning on doing some pipes and such to it. I like the way this thing handles the wind, it is so much better riding in the wind over the other models. Lets keep these a secret, I agree!!!

Thanks, I have been dwelling on this long enough. I have th 08 RG and have been told the throttle cable will not work with most bars because of the recess needed on the underside of the bar. Most bars do not have it. I'm going to call Wild1. Sounds like you are set. I'm gearing up for the Tennesse HOG rally June 5678. I need to get it going.

Some time back I put the thick foam grips on mine with a Throttle Rocker and fly flickers(fringe) on the grips & levers. Been happy with the setup so far.[sm=biker2.gif]
