After trying 3 different bars on an '06 street glide, I'm at the end of my rope.... or bars rather!!

Bar no. 1 from stock: 9" rise with a whooping 38.5" tip to tip.... (it's true what they say that we learn something everyday, it never occured to me about the tip to tip measurement till after installation)

Bar no. 2: ordered some that were listed as, 10" rise and 31.5" tip to tip..... they came in measuring 35" tip to tip!!

Bar no. 3: went to the local dealer to look at the HD bars that are listed for a shorter rider with shorter arms (HD part #55914-98).... but I'm afraid they really won't help much since they measure only .5" more than stock in rise?? SG is there now, torn down for some warranty issues.... but I don't find or decide something soon, it put the stock or these on!!

I'd like to find a set of bars (preferrably in black & 1.25") with about a 10" rise, and not exceeding 32" tip to tip.... I'm thinking that I could roll them back towards me, and in keeping the fairing mirrors in view!! I even thought about some 1" that I could cut on the ends to keep a 31-32" tip to tip..... as long as I still kept enough for the grips, switch housing & master cylinder.

If anyone out there could measure their tip to tip on a set that would be like a mini ape (or what-ever), without exceeding 31-32"...... PLEASE, please let me know what you have!!! Or, if anyone has any other ideas, that would be great.... Thanks, Gwen

 

i've seen several bars that measure 32.5" tip to tip..... does that 1/2" mean a deal breaker?

for example wild one w0508: 32.5 width, 5.5 rise, 16 pullback....

 

I like my Wild 1s - 575s they are suppose to be 34 1/2" wide but when I measure them they are very close to 36".
I like the wider than stock bars. It easier to ride. More leverage.

 

Most e-glides have a 12" center section due to the fairinf switch cover area.
http://www.khromewerks.com/ has some that are shorter, however unless your riding a non fairing model your up against it.
