Well, for me the heritage bars are lower, rather than higher. I mean, as low as I can go type thing? The stock bars were too low. But I have stability and control, and because I have issues with my hands, the bars just work better for me. Is it more comfy to ride with my hands up? Yeah, especially on my back, but my hands won't take it.

Rider backrest coming in today, God and the creek and all. Newer pix to follow soon. 280 miles and counting. And that miught just cover any back issues. Couple more things were highway pegs, and a t-bags windshield bag. After today, waiting on a khrome werks old school sissy bar that should fit the 12s. Haven't seen many of them ( not one ) but they are sideplates and bar for about 210 bux. Great for cargo. Keeps the whine from the rear down. Chicks seem to dig the last one I had. Always, gimme a ride, gimme a ride. Yeah, ok.

Like to get bag rails, engine guard rails, grab rails, and cargo rack eventually. But most of the must have stuff is done to light out for the weekend. I am so freaking glad to be back on a bagger.

Have the Heritage style bars too. While they are a huge improvement over stock, for me, I wish I had forced them to put actual Heritage (newest model) bars on it. They will fit, but have to be notched.
