I just put the Stock Heritage bars on my Fatboy, Harley sells the chrome version of them for $50...best 50 I ever spent. Parts guy looked it up, all cables were identical to the heritage, I did replace the brake line with stainless...some people bend the orig. brake line to fit, for $60 I replaced it with stainless.....

They are still better than stockFatboy bars!

I have Deluxe bars with 3" straight risers on my Fatboy.... for me they're perfect.

I went with Wild Chubby's. Basically the same size & shape as stock as I didn't want to run new throttle cables. I just wanted something beefier & run my switch cables thru the bars,
