Higher RG Bars
The 1st thing I did after the purchase of my bike was to change the bars to the Heritage style bars for the RG. They work ok but I am really wanting something a bit taller. I would really appreciate some pics of RG's with taller bars,maybe 12"s or 13"s something like that to give me an idea as to the looks and compfort of taller bars on the RG.
Thanks guys,post some pics of those sweet Roadies.

Try the 1993 Wide Glide bars - they're 10" mini-apes (not into apes at all myself) and these are as sweet as can be. Nice pullback, nice wrist and arm position. I can get you a part number if needed (PM me).
No picture of the RG yet....

Well Big Daddy, I love the avatar,I hope she is always there to look at.
Do you have a pic of these from the riders seat?
I had to reroute the clutch cable to use the Heritage bars too. They work,but I still find myself having to lean forward to hold the bars,& I cannot move them back anymore.

I had the same problem with the Heritage Bars..Had to lean forward to get my mitts on em. With these it is a natural reach and the controls are right there.

That is the one thing about the Heritage style bars for my RG I don't like is the wrist position. They tuen in to far,I need them to turn out a little more horizonally so my wrist are not so bent.
