Well after some long debate, I decided to order a set of these to try out. I really like the feel of the 12" FXR bars but do not like the look, too tall for what I wanted. probably should have just stayed with the 10" FXR bars. Anyway I ordered up a set and waiting for them to arrive. I'll be interested to see how they feel compared to the 12" bars. On to another set I guess, looking at VRADMAN's pics above I think they should work fine as we have a similar height and build.

Yes, got them on and had time to ride about 300 miles before leaving town. Bars are great, very comfortable and good width. They are taller than you would think 6" bars would be. I like them better than the FXR bars only because they are not as tall, both sets are very good and make the bike feel more agile. Will get pics up when I return home.

I went with the 10" F47's. The width isn't for everyone, but damn, I love those bars. They are perfect for touring - at least for me. I"m 6'1".

anyone installed these themselves I am planning on installing them next weekend ,and would like to know if you have to remove the connectors to slide them throught the bar , I have the 2018 low rider , so I dont need to remove any fairings or have extra wiring to go through the bars ,also I will be relocating the signals to the forks so that another wire that I dont have to run through the bars ,

The new style connectors slide through the bars without having to remove the wire from the connector.
