Road King Handle Bars
I've had following three different types of handle bars on my bike : stock, heritage and currently chubby's 518s. I like the amount of pull back on the 518s, but they're set to wide for riding any distance. Does anyone have any recommendations for a bar that has comfort as well as manuverability?
I just bought 508s for my King. Can't wait to put them on. They are a little further back than stock and more of an angle, but the same width. I just needed about an 1 1/2" (story of my life) to be more comfortable.
I found the factory bars to have a wrist angle that tilted my wrist inward too much. I recently switched to "Reduced Reach" bars for my '09 RK and like them alot. Perfect wrist angle now and come back just a bit closer to me so don't have that slight "lean forward" posture...

Pullback Beach Bars on mine and I really like them. They come back far enough to keep my back stright, and they're not super wide like a lot of other Beach Bars.

I switched mine out with the RK high bars. I had them pulled back a little for a better reach. Though the cost is a little high I would like to change them out with the Klock Werks ERGO bars, the wrist angle is moved out more.
