Anybody using these bars on glide?

I have similar bars (LA Chopper PrimeApe 10") and they're much better than stock. Looks like an awesome price, but need to ensure 10" is your fit (e.g. comfortable riding position). Also, no matter what others say, you'll need to swap the clutch cable...re-routing through frame still doesn't provide enough slack and you'll slip during hard-Left turns due to cable tension. Good luck, choose well and let us know how the deal goes.

I just took mine apart. Going to repaint the inner fairing. I have plenty of slack on my wires. I believe I can reroute the throttle cables and have plenty of slack. Clutch cable will probably be OK it I run it outside the fairing. If I put it back inside I will probably have to change it. The only thing that looks like it will be tight is the brake line. How are you guys getting slack out of it?

Oh yea, on the '14 & up the brake line is different and all rubber up the bars, I can see in your pic your steel brake line has no extra, your probably going to have to modify it or buy an extended line.
You got a great start on it already I see., good work your painted fairing will be cool I bet.

Thanks. I have the bars ordered and a one piece handlebar clamp. I will probably just run the clutch cable outside the fairing. I'm hoping I can make a few careful bends and make the brake line work. I may run the wiring inside the bars if they are long enough. They have alot of slack. One mystery of my bike is now solved. I bought this bike used and ever since I have owned it, if I ride in rain, or wash it, it has always dripped muddy water on front fender. Well, it had the biggest dirtdobber nest in history inside the inner fairing. Problem solved!
