Holy ***** those are pricey! Are they worth it? Did you get the ones that are stock height, or the 2" taller ones?

Not all that pricey. Get 2 or 3 bars that are still not perfect and almost costs as much.

Got them in Sturgis for $750 installed.

Had my dealer switch them to my SGS as part of the deal.

Best money I have ever spent on a bike!

They are about 2" taller than stock.

I was thinking that too. I am a believer of not going cheap just to have to turn around and buy it again.

I was thinking about a set of these. How do you like them? And what kind of price tag are we talking about?

Thanks

Never Mind I just saw your post about loving them and getting them in Sturgis!

Did you need any cable extensions or any other special considerations?

No other wiring or cables.

just had to reroute the clutch cable.

Was just on their site and saw that the black bars are now a little cheaper than the chrome!

Awfully expensive. Like the idea though.

I like the idea of the heli bars, not sold on the looks... But adjustability is always a good thing!
