The riding position with them is awesome. I've had lots of apes, mostly being Wild Ones variety but these have a better hand and wrist position IMHO. Very comfortable.

I sat on a '16 Road Glide Ultra today (it's what I'm going to switch to come spring!) and the factory bars still suck, even though on this bike the factory bars were pushed forward farther than the ones on the '15 RGS I test-rode last fall. I would love to sit on a bike with the Chizeled bars and with the HD Fat Apes before deciding. Either way, this time around, the bars will be done before I leave the dealership, unlike when I got the Street Glide back in '11. I've gotten a little spoiled with the Arlen Ness modular mini-apes on my Street Glide...I can tweak the wrist angle for each side of the bike to just where I want it. If Ness would make a set for the new Road Glides, I'd use them.
Are those the 12" or 14"? I just picked up the 12" and was told at time of purchase to try rerouting the cables instead of new cables. We didn't talk about electrical. Mine is '14.

HD Chizeled bars. Look to me to be the same height as PYO 12" I changed all the cables upper and lower for HD braided. See this thread.
