Dimension of Stock Road King Handlebars

Specifically Rise and Pullback?

I ride a '19 SGS and would like to find HB's that are slightly taller and pull back a little further than the HD Reach bars I am currently using but do not want Ape Hangers or Buck Horns.

I have no idea if the RK HB's would work or accomplish what I want but thought I would ask the knowledge base out there.

Thanks

I don’t know the exact specs but I can tell you that the RKS handlebars are probably what you are looking for.
I just swapped mine out for the SG bars because they were lower and more back than my OEM bars

BTW, are they Chrome or Black?

Might check out the HD parts and accessories catalog you get from the dealer....they have handlebars and list a lot of the dimensions. You can look at a lot of bars and maybe find the set that's right for you.....

So, I guess I will just have to live with the H-D Reach Bars I have currently installed. They work, but for this short rider, I was hoping to find some bars that would move the grips a little closser to me and just a tad higher.

Now, if I could find someone who could add, by welding in, about 1 12 or 2 inches of bar into the verticals of my bars, grind every thing nice and smooth and re-powder coat them for me, they wuold be just about perfect. Wishfull thinking I know
