teqsand, I'm 6' Here are some more pics of the bars on my 08 and 04
For some reason the pics that show the really good angles aren't showing up with photobucket so I'll have to post some more. I know I've posted them on here before as well so a search might reveal some also.

I'm 5' 10" and never had any neck pain with my 01 RK but with the 09 EGC the base of my neck is very sore. When the wife is on the back there isn't any neck pain, caused from the bike, but riding solo it doesn't take long for the neck to hurt. I'm assuming this is because I am sitting more forward when the wife is on the back.
Do the bars need to come back or up and back? When replacing the bars with Kromewerks are the cables long enough or do the cables (brake, clutch...) have to be replaced?

I just bought an E Glide and I have the same pain. Never had it on any other bike that I've owned. My old bikes had apes on 'em though. I'm thinking about putting 13 in apes on my Glide. Does anyone know if going up with the bars would eliminate the pain or would pull backs be best?
Thanks for your help and this thread!

I don't see any part numbers on Kustom Baggers website for bars. They list the Sameole, Mentele and the Ergo Standard, Up & Back bars.
Are 300515 one of the Ergo bars?

No, the Khromewerks 300515's are called sweepers, ergo bars are different.
