Default 10" Bars behind the fairing

.. but more specifically hand below the top of the wings on an Ultra .. I have a Heritage and the bars are much higher and more comfortable.
Today I ordered TWIN PEAK 10" (#0601-2697) .. Anyone confirm I'm on the right track? Switch Wire Extension Kit is all I'd need as well, if not mistaken?


Thanks

Here are my 8 inch PY monkey bars (more like 10 inches). Below the fairing and no wiring extensions or line swaps.

I installed 10" Yaffes but got the wire extensions just because it made it so much easier. Same bars on my '15 SGS, had to cut alot of wire ties and spend some time getting to a few of them in order to get the wires rerouted. The wire extensions were only $25 and made the wire connections a 30 second job. The clutch line required some rerouting to make it work w/o extending and so it wouldnt pull tight on a full lock. Brake line was a piece of cake.

Thanks... Hum no one has the bars I ordered? they want $400 in labor, I talked to a friend whom used to work on bikes to do my bars for his help.. he said the new bike really fought him, and he is not interested. I'm not sure what size bars or year bike.. what say you all that installed on these new sleds? I'm not shy at working on my bike.

Yes, I have the 10" twin peaks as well. I had the dealer install as I was worried with the heated grips. Hands sit about 1" below top of fairing. I'll snap a few pics for you later today
