I have a 2016 Low Rider S with stock bars. I am looking into getting some new bars and fairing. I don't want bars that are super tall. However, I feel like when I ride the stock I'm hunched over a bit. I want good quality bars. T-Bars? Risers and keep the originals? Any suggestions? I like to haul *** and feel my foot peg drag around corners. My bike is in the shop currently because a tooth of my fly wheel broke loose and wreaked havoc inside my crank case, taking out my copper coils Etc.
I am going to be making some 12"ish tall bars for mine soon. I have the same problem and feel hunched over with the stock setup. I already have the extended cables and hoses from Magnum for the change. I also went with the HD 1/4 fairing and Laminar Lip. It's enough to keep the wind off without being too much for my taste.
I was never able to post such great pics on my first post

I prefer Wild One bars over four out of five dentists.
Thanks! Harley is covering the flywheel issue under warranty luckily. I asked them to request the 117 bolt on kit from corporate for the inconvenience of having to have my bike in the shop. I'm gonna make an inference and say that's a no go. I burnt through my back tire (at 4K miles). So I'm getting my flywheel issue fixed, new back tire that's hopefully a little bit denser and the flash update (recall). I'll check out your bar recommendation.

Looks Good!Post a picture when you get the bars on
I'm 5' 11" and I've got a set of 13" Lucky Dave's bars. Beats leaning forward and having constant pressure on my palms. I can sit straight up on the bike now.
I'm running a set of 6" night train risers and a set of big als 3.5" rise bars behind an eBay t sport fairing. The bars straighten me up some and still allow aggressive riding. I do wish to get a 14" shield as opposed to the 12" that came with the fairing. Overall I'm pleased with my results.
