I'm thinking about putting these same bars on my new Road Glide. Hopefully someone will respond to this post with their experience and a pic of these bars on a Road Glide

I have mine on an 08 Ultra. To me these are the bars that Harley should have designed for the bike. They ease the back strain and just are more comfortable and natural feeling. The additional diameter of the bars just completes the picture. If you can, compare stock and Wild one or any style 1 1/4 bars side by side and you'll see what I mean. BTW may be you know but I didn't when I started looking for handlebars. The area where the grips mount and where the bars are mounted on the bike are 1 in diameter. This means you'll have a wide selection of grips to choose from and not need an adapter to mount the bars. Apparently this is true of all 1 1/4 bars.

Best choice that I ever made to install these bars. They relieved my middle back pain plus the pain in my shoulders. i should have installed these a long time ago instead of waiting 8000 miles.

I put them on my 05 Ultra. They made a huge difference. MUCH more comfortable.

I put WO 575's on my 09 Ultra at the 1K service back before Xmas. I'll be calling today to see what it's gonna cost to put the HD pullback bars on instead. The 575's are too wide and the grips too squared up with the rider to suit me. My shoulders and right wrist hurt like h3ll after about 30 minutes of riding (and I don't think it's that birthday that I just had that causes it). The bars look great but after almost 900 miles with them, I'm ready to take 'em off. Just my opinion.

I like mine and like them a lot better with the adjustable riders back rest.
