Nice job. I sat on a Heritage in Las Vegas with the same bars and loved the feel. I'm sure you'll never change them.

Had to replace all the cables. Front brake, clutch, throttle & idle
and +6 wiring extensions on all the wires.

I'm a total newb on all these tasks, but I got through em well enough.

Yup. I could have used the stock risers. they are the right size. I used the ones that came with the kit though. They are a bit higher than the stock risers.

Good one I think I have some couch change if you have them on that long, but hey if you don't like the look so be it it's your bike and money, enjoy. PS if you change them before that 2yr mark then you will owe me your couch change. lol

Those look like 12" bars on 4" risers. The same as 16" apes right?

Looks good!
