FXR Division is awesome! I bought the 14" MX Split Bars for my FXR. Just waiting for them to come back from chrome too. I ordered them about a month ago, so I'm hoping my bars were with yours when they got chromed..time to give Chris a call!!

They feel great and look awesome and I’ll probably never run into someone else that has them. I went to the oyster run in Anacortes and everyone had the factory 47 bars I had before, they’re great bars but I wanted something more performance oriented.

Man, thanks for that review. I have been looking at these hard for my 19 RGS. 12" black are what I would go with. I love the look of the Tbars on Road Glides but also use my Infotainment/GPS. I couldn't find much info or pics other than FXR Divisions Instagram page so I really appreciate the review. You've sold me on a set. Thanks

Any issues with bar movement/vibration? I'll be putting a set of poly bushings in when I install.
Did the stock wiring/cables work? It looks like you have plenty of slack if those are stock.

Thanks!!

Subscribing... I like these bars but worried that I would be leaning too far forward with them. How's the reach? Are you leaning forward?

The lean forward is the issue I am concerned with.

You’ll need to grind the pin off the inside of the clamps for perches, they don’t drill the holes for em, and you have to remove the dowel they use at the factory to locate the bars when they install. Not big issues, just be aware.

im 6 foot tall, i have them set at the same angle as my forks. I don’t feel like I’m leaning forward at all. I think I might be slightly, I have a little shorter arms than some I think. I have the 14 inch version.
