Default Beach bar style bars on batwing???

All I see is apes around here, Baron makes a bar that suppose to fit a batwing, just wondering if anyone has one? I'm just trying to get comfortable. I would do apes but I have a shoulder issue with my arm up like that for any time really starts to become seriously uncomfortable.

Thanks

I have it on my ultra classic electra glide 2007. Its nice makes the bike feel lighter and macho look because of the thicker bar. I guess due to the wide bar makes it easy to to lift it from kick stand. I would recommend it and LA Chopper has a good product.

Any chance of a few photos? How hard was the install? Change cables or such?

You dont need cables, just some re-routing. As far as the install goes, running the wires and throttle through it is a breeze!
