Wondering what handlebars your wife is using? And wondering if we're about the same height. I just traded up to a 2017 RGS yesterday (from a switchback), and already hunting for new bars. I'm 5'6".

I just ended up ordering 14" KST bars since they're 200 cheaper than most of the others out there and no wait. I'll see what I can write up as a review

Did KST say their 14" would work with factory wires/cables or are you going to have to extend those?

She is really liking the stock set up. She used to have Yaffe Monkey bars on her street glide, but has not asked me to look into a swap yet.

I have 13" Road 6 on mine now, a buddy has 14" Vindikta's and Factory 47 says their 14" fit with no added wires/cables. I'm looking at going to 14's myself here very soon.
