RE: Handlebar Poll
Thanks for all the replies everyone. This is interesting to me. I was expecting more Wide Glide bars.
I'm just getting used to them on my bike. I wasn't immediately please with them and I've had to adjust them forward and backward a couple times to find the correct angle. Seems most comfotable with the bars at the same angle as the forks. I'm also getting used to the wrist angle which is quite a bit steeper than stock.
Who knows, I may have to try Wild 1s next.

RE: Handlebar Poll
I am currently with stock bars but I am thinking about changing the bars and grips on my RK Classic. My left shoulder gets sore at the end of the day so I am thinking something that moves my arms up and back a little and then Kury Iso Grips with throttle bosses on both sides.

Thanks gdkenoyer!! $50 ain't too bad if it makes the ride more comfortable. And cheaper on eBay I bet.

It's my understanding that you don't have to change the cables either, is that correct?
