I have put about 3500 miles on my 09 EGC since getting it a couple of months ago. I love the scoot, but feel that the bars should come back further towards me so that I can sit up a little straighter. Have seen several discussions on different bars. After trying them (I only want to change them once) what bars would you suggest that use stock cables and come back further. I do like the wrist position on stock bars. Thanks for you assistance.

 

I really like the Wild1 575's.

Kromeworks Sweepers work real well. I like the grip angle, not so pointed back so your wrist is comfortable.

I"ve heard the 575's are good as well - I'm in the same boat. I'm shorter and have used a Mustang seat with rider backrest which me moved up a bit and that helps, but I feel like I need the bars to come back about another inch or so to be in the sweet spot.

 

Wild One. Great selection of great handlebars.

I've heard some good things about the Wild 1's 518's, but I've got a 09 RKC, so it may be different on EGC. Wrist angle looks to be fairly decent. That's my plans anyway. Got to sit on a bike with those on it.

 

If you like the wrist position, then i suggest the wild 1. i should have gone for the wild 1 but instead i went with the khrome works sweeper +2. it gives you the pull back, i'm not too keen on the wrist angle. angled more like a drag bar. i'm saving money for the wild 1 575. kw sweepers is about 70, but wild 1 is about 250 (give or take). oh the sweeper will work with the stock cables

 

I like the wild 1 518 bars and you can use stock cables.

 

I've changed mine from stock to Apes to wide bars to...but keep coming back to these.

If you want them to come back a little more but don't want the semi ape hanger width, take a look at the Harley Road King High bars.

Sits you back a little bit more and are a little higher but they are a bit narrower than the stock bars.

Not perfect but I'm done changing bars.
