Can you show us a better pic of your wild 1 575?? Would love to see them mounted, as those are the bars I'm getting ready to purchase for my 09 ultra. Thanks, Rich

Has anyone tried fitting them successfully to an ABS bike?

Thanks,

They work fine! It also says they can't be used with fairing mounted mirrors but I and others on this forum use them fine with fairing mounted mirrors. Now these are on Terrie's 09 Street Glide (with ABS) but she uses them fine with ABS and fairing mounted mirrors.

I think these photos show the bars in relation to the mirrors. It just depends on if you're going to turn the bars up (shove them forward) or not. In this location, she's able to turn fork stop to fork stop and not have it interfere with her legs or hit the tank.

They sold you a bill of goods. No, longer cables or wiring are not needed. We changed the bars only.......nothing else!

what about a 07 EGC...my understanding that I would only need +2 on the throttle cables...is that correct?
