I was curious about these as well. But after getting the Tallboy seat, I’m fine with the bar position now since the set effectively puts the bars higher and further away from you.

I don't know if mine are Tall boy's or not, but on my '15 Road King Police the bars appear to be 2"-3"higher. Don't know if this helps. BTW your avatar was my first tattoo...

They are 3in taller with the other dimensions being the same as std bars. They will fit with the factory cables and wires.

I would recommend that you upgrade/change your seat first if you are going to before you do the bars. Example. I went this a C&C wide solo which drops you 1in and back 1 1/2in so with the tall boys I gained 4in of rise.
