Default Road King Bars

At the risk of bringing up handlebars again........apologies! Has anyone switched out the stock handlebars on a 2015 FLHR for the Road King Fat Bars available from HD? Does it bring your hand position back a significant distance?

thanks for your input

Lobo

I put the WO 502s on my '15 RK and find them perfect. They are 1 1/4" bars.

Very easy install on a 2015 cause the stock bars are higher, just wire extensions needed and simply reroute your clutch cable and front brake line. Piece of cake.
