Default Lower bars for RK?

Loving my new RK but I'm finding the stock bars a little "ape-ish"

Any bars that are a little lower?

I had WildOne's Chubby 518s on 2 of my Road Kings - a 2003 and a 2010. Loved them. Low and wide, very comfortable.

Low is the new high

Take a look at the wild1inc.com website, bike pics.

I did mine with +4 braided lines, but I've heard tell the stock stuff will work. YMMV

P.S. Plenty of threads on the WO bars and how to swap all over the forums
