Is there good place to find out which bars fit without changing the stock cables. I don't like the stock bars but money is a little tight to replace all the cables, etc. at the moment. Thanks

WO578 all you have to do is change out the clutch cable. This was only $40. I did this on my SG. 10" is the highest you can go. I thinkw ith 12" you can still work with the electrical, but the brake will need to be changed along with the clutch.

Ordered my 578's today. They said just change clutch cable to 4" longer than stock. Doing install myself. Wild Ones is very helpful with their pics of de-pinning electrical plugs. Have to cut 1/2" off the left side of the handlebar for heated grip. One guy on this forum said use tubing cutters. Great idea, cuz I was wondering how to get a good symmetrical cut. Thanks for all the knowledge on this forum. You guys know who you are.

The guys at Wild Ones said the WO 578's are adjustable where as the 575's are not. I would give them a call at wild1inc.com. They are very helpful.

I went with the next longer clutch cable which I believe is a +2.

578's you can pull back quite a ways if you need to. I left mine more upright and the grips were still back to me farther than stock. Right now without riding it yet they feel great and my hands are right even with the top of the fairing

I have seen a few basically your knuckles are in the bottom of the mirrors but plenty left to see out of...
