I'm hunting for handlebars and I'm sure I'm not the only one nor will I be the last...just like seats.

Tell Us:
What bars they are.
What the bars are on.
Pros and Cons (Easy/Difficult Installation, Quality of Bars, Availability, Comfort etc)
How they compare to stock.
Cable/wire extensions required?
Wrist angle?
And measurements/specs if you can.
Since I started the seat encyclopedia and it is yet to gain traction I will post up here to help out.
Handlebar--Road 6 customs 14" Holey Rollers
Bike--2014 dyna street bob
Pros and Cons--easy install no re-pinning of connectors, the 90° angles made the wire pull a little difficult but still pretty easy
How they compare to stock-- narrower stance and taller much more comfortable than stock
Cable extensions required--no, but relocation of clutch cable to the right side of the frame gave more room and a better angle
Thanks for the post and pics. Those are on my list of potential bars. Probably just go with the 12's though. I really only want my hands up a couple inches more than stock. I wish they came in 1.25in instead of just an inch.
Hey Stress, you in Huntsville, AL? If so, do you get to any bike nights? I'm thinking of getting a Street Bob for a 2nd bike and running around town. Would love to see your bike and if you're cool with it maybe sitting on it and get a feel for those bars.
What bars they are. 14inch Imzz Elite T bars
What the bars are on. 15 Streetbob
Pros and Cons bike feels more stable at speed. bars are comfortable. After a long ride throttle hand get a bit sore.
How they compare to stock. No comparison. The stock bars sucked. Bike had speed wobbles at 90mph.
Cable extensions required? Throttle and idle cables had to be replaced. I used Barnett Cables.

Why not go with a riser? I might be totally off base but a simple riser is inexpensive and easy to install.
That's a good idea. And I may end up doing that, stock risers are 2 inches? But I'd like to try a more straight wrist angle as well.
Risers can be curved or straight.
I also find a surprising number of people do not roll their handlebars forward or backwards as needed for comfort even if they are cramping. For some reason they just don't think about it and opt for replacement bars without first experimenting.
I am an Evo Heritage guy, so there might be something peculiar about these new bikes that I could be wrong about.
