Think I have it narrowed down to the Khrome Werks 2+ Sweepers and the Klock Werk Ergo Back Bars. Looking for info from those who have either. Like / dislikes? Stock cables or not? Any pics would be great. Going on an '05 E Glide.
Thanks. Got lots of info on the Sweepers and a "bad" review (customer service) of the Ergo's. Some good pics also. Went ahead and ordered the Sweepers (saved over $100 vs. the Ergo) - at least if they are not what I am looking for I should be able to sell them. Hoping my hydraulic clutch will work with them - the CVO guys say the stock Hydraulic line will work with the Chubbys 575's and the Sweepers are a bit "closer".
Not sure what you are riding so can only give you the information I received from Khromeweks for my 08 RG

Subject: +2 Sweeper bars
Hi
I have a 2008 Anniversary Road Glide (FLTR)
If I order the + 2 Sweeper bars for this bike will I need to change
the cables.
Thanks for your help
Mike
The clutch and brake lines and turn signal wiring will be long enough.
You will need an extension for the electronic throttle control sensor. We
recommend Namz Custom Cycle plug n play products, also carried by our
distributors.
I've got an 09 Road King and need more comfortable bars...I have to lean forward slightly to reach the stock bars. I think I need more pullback...my shoulders start to hurt after an hour of riding. Anyone got a King and good suggestions?
I have the Ergo-Up bars. Love them. Hated them at first though...
Used all stock cables. I have ABS too.

I sat behind a set and it felt like my outer hands kinda pointed out and up it felt a little weird? What did you not like at first (no hijacking intended)?

Exactly that. Unlike a lot of bars out there, these bars are straight. No turn down. At first it was weird, but after a few weeks the bars really grew on me. They are like drag bars kinda I guess.
