Question Handlebar suggestions
I might want to change my bars on my '18 Street Glide Special. I am pretty comfortable with the stock, but just 1 inch closer and 1 inch higher would be so much better! They've gotta be black of course, an CANNOT spend more than around $200.

Thanks,
P

Sounds like you should try rotating your factory bars up a little bit.

This was an email answer from Wild 1 Chubby's 579 "The WO579 will get the grips about 3” closer to your shoulders allowing for a more comfortable ride".

And I think they are 1" taller too.
