I think I'm going with the WO578's and some Avon heated grips. Hoping that adjusting them back a bit keeps them near fairing height and provides some decent pullback over my KW +2 sweepers...

 

Please don't forget to come back post your results.

 

Yes. Feedback!
I have those bars now, and am also debating between 578's and Twin Peaks. I dont hate the width of the +2's, but more height would be nice. I'd also like to hear about the wrist angle difference.

 

Feedback will be awhile as it will be a winter project

 

Thats OK. Its a winter project for me too

Trying a different route. I just bought some KW 1.25" 2+2 stretch bars. Equal to a 10" bar but more adjustable without a bend. We shall see ??

I just got all the parts to do the WO1's 578's. Now if the weather would just warm up a little I could do the conversion!

For those of you considering 10" bars, the WO 578's and the LA Chopper Twin Peeks are not a real good comparison. Twin peaks are mitered and will be up close to the fairing since they have a lot of forward bend. The LA Choppers 10 in bagger bars are a lot closer to the 578's, but are not as wide. I just installed the twin peaks, but with them adjusted all the way back, I just couldn't reach them. Switched to the 10" LA bagger bars and like them a lot. Wrist angle is better for me also. The Twin Peaks made my elbows stick out and hurt my arthritis. I'm 5'9" for comparison.

 

Finished my WO 578's a few weeks ago. I ordered the cables and brake lines 6+ just in case I wanted to go another 2" in the future. Not a problem with the longer lines. Started with the bars full forward and the use of the fairing mirrors was still functional. Decided to pull the bars back and the comfort is much improved, pulled back about an 1 1/2" from the fairing. Now I needed to add bar mirrors and all is good. After a few long rides I wish the bars were a little wider with more pull back in the direction towards me. Angle from parallel to the front wheel and the grips need to be 5 to 10 degrees more. Don't get me wrong I really like them over the stock bars by a factor of 10!
