Handlebars
I have a 2013 Electra Glide ultra classic. I want to put 14 inch handlebars on the bike but I'm worried about control issues with an already top heaven bike. Any help would be great.

I went with 12in bars on my Street Glide and feel like I have more control than stock bars. If you are in the 6ft or over range then 14s will be fine for you. As long as your hands are close to shoulder height (when on the grips) then you should not lose any control ability.

If you have a true concern about handling a touring bike you already perceive as "top heavy", you should wait on the handlebars. "Top Heavy" is generally not an often used term for the touring line.
I recently switched to "Mini Apes" on my Road King. They are a bit wider that the Heritage style bars they replaced. The extra width provided additional leverage which I feel has increased control

after 11 bikes and I've change 4 of them as far as bars...
I have to say that the stock 07 Heritage Bars on my bike is the most Ergonomically friendly and best as far as comfortably bars I've ever had on any bike.
I'll also add these bars are probably the most popular add on bars of all other bars combined.

Maybe I'm old fashioned or just old but I don't get tall bars on a bike with a fairing. But that's me.
