I really do not want to switch seats as I have a $800 Corbin seat and back rest now....Great seat with back rest and no problems with sore spots...But a good idea if I still had the stock seat to go to the reach seat.....thanks

Default H-D touring pullbacks

I sat on a Champion 2008 Ultra trike conversion today that had these Harley (2") pullback bars installed---56176-08. I'm 5'5" and those were so much more comfortable than the stock bars on my own TG! Look up the P/N in the catalog and look at the specs. I think the price is right but I think they are stainless, if that really matters.

I am 5'4" and a 27" inseam. Have always had these issues! LOL Am not so young anymore and had to stop riding many years ago. The Tri-GLide has allowed me to get back on the road!

Installed HD stock Touring bars which gave extended back another 2". As well had a custom Corbin seat made at 12" depth (with backrest). Still would like another 1 to 1 1/2 " but am fully satisfied at this point.

Khromwwerks model 300515 bars worked for me. Only need a clutch cable. There is enough wire in the bars to extend to reach the TBW. dawg on this forum helped me with this, he is awesome.

Just brought my wife's 2010 TriGlide back from the dealer tonight with a new H-D 2" pull back bar (56176-08). They installed diamondback stainless clutch and brake cables. She picked out Kuryakin ISO grips. I'm 6'3", so we'll see how I do if I ride it on a long trip, but she's about 5'4" and I am hopeful it will help her. It did feel a bit easier to steer on my 8 mile ride. So far, she just sat on it in the garage tonight! Total with install was $802.53 w/tax.
