Heritage bars on RKC..question...
Question for you guys that have put Heritage Softail bars on your Road Kings....what exactly did it do for you? I need something with a bit more rise and comes back a hair further. The muscles across the top of my back are just too tight for comfort with my stock bars. Guess I could look at a Heritage at the stealer, but that isn't going to tell me how they feel with a RKC seat ( I have the Reach seat).

RE: Heritage bars on RKC..question...
Ok, thanks....it's got me really interested, but wary. When I bought my RKC, I'd gone specifically to look at the Heritage but liked the Road King better due to the sitting position. One of the things I didn't like about the Heritage were the bars, but I'm wondering how much of that would be different on the RK.

I'm kinda the same way. Can't remember what the Heritage bars are like though. Plus, my wiring runs through the bars. Will the wiring run through the Heritage bars as well?

The Heritage bars will raise your arms to a more comfortable riding position and will also be narrower than the stock RKC bars. I'm glad I made the change.

I found them to be the best 50 bucks I spent on the bike. spend some time sitting or riding the bike after installing them before you install all the chrome back on. The more I test-sat the more I adjusted the bars back towards me. TRICK! sit on the bike with your eyes closed and hands in your lap for a couple mins. Than without opening your eyes lift your arms up to a riding position quickly, thiswill be agood starting location for the bars
