I love my new bike but I hate the stock bars. I had +2 Khrome Werks sweepers on my 07. I really liked them especally the wrist angle. I'd put a set on this bike except I really want some 1 1/4 fat bars and the KW bars are only 1".
Does anyone have a suggestion for a fat bar that is similar to the sweepers?
Auw go ahead, you know you want too. Put some real apes onit. Hill Country Custom or Cyclesmith. 13" or 16" you'll never go back once you go ape. Swing from the highiest limbs, not the low ones.

I am tempted to go apes but probably baby apes at 10".
I have been toying with the idea of installing W0518 bars on my RG. I have the +2 sweepers now, but after a couple of 10 hour days I have killer pain between my shoulder blades.

The sweepers worked great for me. I just want fat bars with a similar hand position. Buckhorns don't work for me. I don't want apes that are higher than the fairing.
Your stock bars just about have your hands above the fairing now. My 10 inch OutlawZ's came today. I took them out and compared them(best I could) with the stock bars. They are taller, but just not enough. The people at Wild1's are very easy to talk to, my 10 inch go back tomorrow and the 12's should be here in a couple weeks. It will be a bigger job than I had hoped since I'll have to get a cable and hose. May even have to get some wires.

I was thinking the same thing that 10" might not be enough. I'm also concerned about the pullback on the outlaws. What do you think? If you pull them back will it screw up the wrist angle?
