Can anyone let me know if these are factory bars from a diff model softail or do they appear to be chubbys? New to me 06 softail. Previous owner did a lot of little mods. Trying decide if I want to keep these bars or switch to apes. Love the look of these bars but dont know if theyre going to be comfortable for my riding habits.
i have that style by Wild 1 and find them very comfortable.
I was pretty positive I couldnt remember these being stock on anything. Appreciate you confirming.
how tall are you if you dont mind me asking. Im 6ft and not sure these will be comfortable for long rides.
I had 12inch tbars on the dyna I had last and loved them.
I'm 6ft and my wife's Dyna has those on it. Fun for me for a short while only. My Heritage has 16" apes and I love them. Do you have any friends with different bars that would let you try them? Maybe visit the used bikes at a couple dealers.

my brothers bike currently has 12in tbars and his glide had factory 47 14 in bars.
Ive had apes and t-bars on some of my other bikes and loved them. Tallest apes Ive had have been 14s and my t-bars were 12s. I loved both those setups
debating just ordering the 16 apes as it seems every person with a softail says thats the ticket for someone my height/build and the riding style.
