Have you tried out just rolling/rotating your existing bars back? That will lower them some and get them closer to you?

I am a big fan of free and easy mods and adjustments before spending money.

Even if it doesn't get you what you want, it at least lets you try an approximation.

I am having a heck of a time trying to figure out a better fitting set going off of the specs in a catalog. I wish there was a place where you could just hold up a different set to "try" them. The stealership has all packaged, I can't see them and they are not inclined to unwrap them and let me look at them. I don't blame them for that.

I have stock buckhorns (32") and would like something lower and with an inch or two more pull back.

I like the look of beach bars but most are too wide (37-39")

I would consider a low rise bar and set them on top of short risers.

Any of you know of a HD part no. or other providers p/n I should look at?
I have some stock Heritage bars I'm not using if you are interested.
