Default WO575's on a limited

I never thought that selecting a set of bars would be so difficult !! I don't really care for the look of "apes" ! For those running the WO575 bars, how do you compare them to "stock", 2012 Limited ? I am 5'-8", not long arms (unlike an ape, LOL). I need to come up and back (back being more inportant). Any input would be appreciated, Craig

I have WO575's on my 2011 Ultra Limited and in my opinion they are a huge improvement over stock. With the wrist angle on them my hands don't feel much higher than stock but they are wider and pulled back more. Before the switch after a couple hours on the bike I had the burn between my shoulder blades. Now I can ride all day with no discomfort.

I have the WO-575's on my 07 Ultra and find them a big improvement over the stock bars. the wrist angle is better and the bars are just a little higher and wider. Can ride all day with these and no pain anywhere from them. IMO they were worth the money.

The 575s rock. 577s would probably be more comfortable for me, but they put my hands above the fairing.

Plus one, 575s are as high as you can go while still keeping your hands protected by the fairing. Two inches higher and two inches further back and also wider, I love them. Better looking than the sweepers but more expensive
