Default handlebar help

I am looking for handlebars for my 04 Road Glide. I need something that has somemore pullback. I am vertically challenged and would like to get the grips a little closer. Anyone running a similiar setup?

Thanks

Dennis

lots of choices out there. the standard swap outs seem to be either wideglide bars or heritage classic bars. I am running the heritage bars on mine now because I like the wrist position better. either will run you around $50 from the dealer. Another replacement thats been talked about a lot here are Krome Werks +2 sweeper bars... I have a set in the garage to try out but haven't installed them yet. They run around $60 or so.

Beyond that, the choices are fairly unlimited... but the price starts going up.

I think you are looking for Krome Werks for 60.00 and not Klock Werks.

Got my khrome works bars installed today. I am very pleased ( found them for 51.99 and Phat performance refused to match the price because it was so low). Had to reroute the clutch cable and adjust the front brake line. They look good and more importantly fit me better. I will be hitting the road with them tomorrow.
