I Finally got my bars installed. I went with the KST Bison Bagger 12" bars. I ordered these bars in February of this year and they were finally installed in mid May.
Why so long you ask? The dealership was waiting on the throttle extension wire the entire time. A part I probably could have made with some 12 gauge wire and crimps. LoL
I love the feel of the raised bars on the bike, makes longer rides much more relaxing. I did have to add some mirrors on the bars because with these the bar controls are right in the viewing area of the batwing mirrors.
Sorry to tell you this but I have installed six sets of bars as tall as 16 inches and a throttle extension is not required. HD is very generous with that cable length.
