Hey! Got a 2014 Ultra last year, and LOVE it, except for one little problem... My hands want to go to sleep! I want to replace the stock bars, go a little taller, but I also want to find some that are 'flatter'. I am built wide but have T-rex arms. As a result, riding with bars that twist my hands out, cause me to crimp at the wrist, and I think that is where my issue is. I need to find some bars that aren't pulled back so far at the grip. I want my knuckles almost flat to the front as I ride.
Does anyone know if someone makes bars like that, or can a shop 'flatten out' a bar with a press?
Check out Todd's cycle 10 in bars. 32 inches wide not 36 like most with 10 inches of pullback. Knuckles almost straight forward and just under the top of the fairing.
LA Choppers 10 inch. Your hands are just at the top of the fairing but not above it. No change to clutch and brake lines. Just minor wiring extensions.
Edit - I forgot you mentioned T-Rex arms. These, or similar, won’t work for you. I have a 35 inch sleeve length and my arms are fully extended.
