Just measured. 36" to the end of each grip. 15-1/4" inside spread. The bars line up directly between the gauges and speakers on my 2013.

Excellent. yeah thats what I needed. Thanks Man. 4" would make a HUGE difference on my full lock turns, which is the reason I want narrower. Im definitely gonna switch.

If you like the Mayhems, call Brett and talk with him about what your wanting. He'll make you a custom set.

Look at the grip angle too. Stock angle is turned in too far and others are straightened out too far. The Yaffe's are lots more comfortable to me than several other brands I tried out. My dealer had several bikes in the back that I got to check out before deciding.
