wild 1 handlebars?
Anyone have wildone handlebars? I Have been looking at the pull back drag bars. I was looking at the HD Street Slammer bars but heard good things about wild1's. Any feedback would be great...

Yup, got a set. They're similar to my stock ones, but wider with a bit more pullback. When riding for any length of time with my stock bars, I would get a pain in my shoulders from leaning a bit too far forward. The Wild1's have made a huge difference. Love'm.

507 Drags here with 10" rise and 12" pull-back. Love 'em. Every bit as nice as Carlini Design, but far less cost. My 3" tank lift makes the 10" rise look less prominent.

I have a set of the 560's on my FXD and love them. Great fit and finish is second to none. Before I bought mine, I called their main number and spoke with their staff, that was the way to go. Talk to them about what you ride, how you ride, height, etc. and they'll direct you toward the right set of bars, worked out perfectly for me. 3+ years now and so much better than stock.

I'm in the process of replacing my Streetslammers with the Wild1s pullback drag bars. I had the same problem leaning forward too much and I'm hoping this will be the answer. I called Wild Ones and they said that they pull back 3" further and 1" lower than the Streetslammers. Also putting the matte black HD turn signal mirrors on at the same time. Should have it tomorrow and I'm jazzed. Can't wait.

I have the 508's on my 03 Fatboy. I'm short and had pain in my shouldersand since I got bars pain has gone away and I feel I have better control of the bike. I too called up and talked directly to them. They were very helpful on which bars would be best.
