Has anyone installed KST Renegades or any other KST 14" bars on their RKS? I really like the look and the price, but not sure about the quality and finish since they seem to be on the lower ballpark. Tried to search the forums, but found some old threads only. Also, KST states that you can re-use stock lines with 14" bars and I don't know if that's true or not and how much tension it puts on the stock lines if you do re-use them. Any input, guys?

Stock cables will be fine with 14" KST bars. If you go with bars any taller or much wider, you'll need to either change cables or reroute them the stock ones to work. From what I hear, KST bars look nice but aren't great quality. I've heard of welds breaking, and I've also heard that the inside of the bars are sometimes rough and have cut or damaged wires and connectors. A lot of people use them though because they're cheap and I've only heard or read very few complaints, so I'm sure you'd be fine

I hate looking at this forum and especially this thread! Got rid of my 16 RGS for a 17 Charger Hellcat and now have the itch to get a RKS! Going to Harley tomorrow for an event after the morning Cars and Coffee and my wife said i'm not allowed to go inside nor leave with anything. I tell her no guarantees!
