Farthest Ive ridden with them is 400 miles and I was fresh as a daisy when I got off the bike. The only thing I notice with them is on window days it will push your upper body around a bit, but you get used to it and hardly notice it after a while.

I have the HD beach bars which are 36" wide and a pullback of 14".

It took very little time, if any, to get used to them. I have no control issues and find them very comfortable even on long rides.

I believe you will like them.

I have the Bigguns on my scoot. Have had them for years and have ridden 750 mile days with them. They are, by for, the most comfortable I have ridden with.

Welcome to the BBB club!

Ride safe!

I put a set of them on my Deluxe, and yes; they will take a little getting use to. Because of my height and reach I went with the 36" Burly beach bars. I hope you enjoy yours as much as I do mine, the only thing I regret is I should have made the change several years earlier.
One thing’s for sure; there's no more reaching for the bars now!
