Heritage bars

Can you guys that have swapped out your stock bars for the heritage bars post some pics. I'm finding myself reaching too much on the stock bars. Heard the heritage bars will fix the problem. And can you use stock cables when swapping out. Thanks. I know a seat swap would work too, but I'd like to keep my stock seat as my wife is comfortable on it. Grassy azz

Check out the my pics, can't post any new ones from where I am, but I have long gorilla arms so I roled them forward and have the shorter seat, but love the hell out of them. Use stock cables.

Thanks guys. Great pics and you guys have some Very sweet rides. If you had your choice of the reach bars or the heritage, which ones are better for the short armed fella?

I'm 6-2 and the heritage bars are better than stock but I'd still like another inch or so pullback, and an inch or two wider.

Again, thanks for the great pics and advice. Yea, the more pullback for me, the better. Don't want them too wide though.

The new for 09 Heritage bars are the ones you want. They come back 3" farther than stock and use the same cables. I'm 5'8" with a 32" sleeve, if that helps ya any
