Default Help choosing handlebars

I know it has been discussed before but I am looking for recommendations for bars. The measurement chart on the HD site is a little confusing to me. I have a 2007 RK. I am 6’4” and sit far back on my seat. I am looking for a solution that is slightly narrower and a couple inches higher/back. I notice the bars on the stock road king point a llittle down and out at the end. Maybe something that points a little higher and back? I don’t know. I just want slightly narrower and closer so I don’t have to lean forward too much. Even though I am tall I feel I cant really sit straight and comfortably hold the bars.

Also I think my stock bars are uneven. Like the left side is farther back than the right. They don’t appear to be bent or anything just uneven. Maybe its me or maybe that’s normal?

I also forgot to say I dont want to change my cables/lines.

Thanks
Ed

Try the 508's or the 518's.. Lotsa people on here like both these bars for their RK's
