I have a 2013 CVO RK. I really like the handlebars of the 2015 CVO Road Glide. 3 dealers I went to cannot tell me if I can make them work on my RK. Anyone here have an idea?
New bars on the '15 FLTRUSE are 1 1/4 inches the whole way EXCEPT THE GRIPS. They don't thin down to 1" at the clamps. You'd have to change the clamps/risers to make them work IF those parts will fit your '13.

I'm OK with changing the risers, it's the switch controls, brake and clutch resevoirs that I am concerned about.
That's all at the standard 1" ( I edited my original response). It should bolt right up.There's a few guys over on Roadglide.org that have change out their bars already. Might want to check the threads over there.
