I have an 09 Street Glide with TBW.

I've decided the Wild 1 575's are not high enough. I like them, they are good quality, but they are too short and I cannot use Heat Demons with them without drilling them out, the inner diameter with the TBW will not work. I'm looking for around 13" bars, the Wild 1 577's are about right but once again, I cannot use the Heat Demons with them. I've heard good and bad about the Cycle Smiths, finish is questionable and they taper funny so you can't really use handlebar mounts and I don't know if they work with Heat Demons. Do any 1 1/4" bars work with TBW and the heat demons? What are my choices for bars that work with Heat Demons in the 13" range? Can anyone help?

I feel you about the 575s, I'm saving for another set of Carlini's.

You might want to try the Paul Yaffe Orginal Monkey Bagger Bars. I know that the TBW works no problem and I'm pretty sure the heat demons will work also. There are numerous threads in here about the MBB that you could look up and read. I ordered a set and am getting ready to put them on. Can't wait.
