Here are the bars that came on my Road King Custom. I've still got them and have no need for them. If you (or anybody else) want them, you can have them for the price it takes to get them to you.

Ive got the same stock beach bars on my RoadKing Custom and they are comfortable but are a bit of a work-out trying to do tight U-turns. They are good on long rides but you get the feeling you are opperating a wheelbarrow instead of riding a bike. I'm looking to put some apes on my ride just for a change.

Chop.

I like the ride. I've logged 75k with them and have no complaints. They are especially comfortable with a windshield and rider's backrest.

The metric I had before getting the King had beach bars, so they didn't seem so strange to me. They're great for cruisin'.

Honestly, the Custom was the most ergonomically comfy bike of all the Harley's I looked at. That combined with the lower ride and less trim, I wanted a Custom pretty bad, but couldn't find one when I was ready to buy.

The stock King standard bars were killing me, and Custom bars were my first pick, but size difference ran the price up pretty fast, on the swap, and went with police bars.
