2010 fltrx handlebar dimensions
rise, pullback, width UGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
im about to lose it... does anyone have the specifications for the stock bars?? from there i can try to determine what i may need.
HD only has 3 bars available for the 2010 fltrx with abs. without abs, a handful more...
ive looked at aftermarket a bit, but i feel i need the stock dimensions to get a better idea of what to look for....
anyone else having issues with the abs, i know its the upper brake line that changes depending on the bar...

I tried two different bars on it and wasn't happy until I traded for a Street Glide, because I was about to change them out again.
I would like to change my Street Glide bars one more time but my dealer charges 8 hours ($600) labor for internally wired bars. So I'm pretty much stuck with what I got.

The more I ride my FLTRX, the more I like the stock bars. They bothered me at first. My ride home after purchase was 230mi. After about 1000mi., I think the bike broke me in. My problem was in my hands - mostly at the thumbs. But the FLTRX is the first bike with 1" bars I've had since 1994, so I think my issue was less about position than getting used to the bigger diameter over 7/8" bars. Still, put a few miles on it and see. Sometimes it takes some miles to get used to a different riding position. Then you make like it better.

Try '93 Wide Glide
Believe me I am NOT into apes, but I installed '93 Wide Glide bars on my 2010 FLTRX, which are 13" mini-apes and they are great! Neat looking without being outrageous.
You've got to be real careful about clearance when the handlebars turn as a lot of bars will hit the fairing.
There is a website that has all the handlebar dimensions but it's not here in the office with me. (PM me and I send you the link and post it as well).
