Been running stock for over a year. Have them pulled back more than I'd like, to give some bend to my arms. Especially when riding with a backrest. Got short arms I guess.
I'm toying with the idea of moving up to a tourer but if I decide to keep the Heritage I'll likely put some bars on it with a few more inches of pullback.
Put the Heritage bars on my '06 Fatboy, more comfortable than the stock bars. Pulled them back just a bit to get a good control angle and sat up straighter in the saddle (less clamshell).
At the moment I still have the stock. I would be intersted to know what other bars that people put on their Heritage and what they think are the most comfortable.
if you go to the chubby wild 1 site your sure to find the perfect bar for your bike. maybe check out the 504's the look like they have a nice pullback for a heritage. they have tons of pics of different style bars on different bikes on thier site

Why do you think going to a tourer is "moving up"? (Just kidding) But seriously, I've got 26,000+ miles on my FLSTCI, and I wouldn't trade it for any bagger out there. Of course, I ride solo, and that makes a difference.
I went with Wild One 518s, as have many others here. Good pullback, not "wheelbarrow-wide" like some others. They eliminated the pain I'd get between the shoulder blades after an hour or so of riding. Also allowed me to run the wires through them for a cleaner look. Highly recommended.
