Can anyone tell me the stock dimensions (tip to tip, rise, pull back, etc) for 2022 Road Glide Special handlebars? I like the stock bars, but want more height.
I’ve got the same bike, but in black versus chrome. Anyway, Road Glide bars appear to be different beasts that batwing bars. I started with 12” KST Six Bend Kickers on my ’20 Street Glide. Too tall for my old shoulders. So I changed to 10”s.
So when I bought the ’22 RGS, I put 10” KST adjustable bars on it. Too short. So I swapped to 12”.
As far as measurements, I can tell you the 10” KSTs on the Road Glide were just a smidge taller than the stock bars. Whereas on the Street Glide, the 10” bars were a good deal taller than stock.
It is a very inexact science trying to figure out bar heights, and desired bar heights. Trial and error for me.

If you look in the P&A catalog, there is a section on controls. It lists different bars, etc. And there is a chart showing dimensions for each bar. You can check that and compare different dimensions too.
