I wanted 2-3" more pullback and more rise. Did a lot of research and ended up going with horizon heli-bars in black for my 2009 Street Glide. Bars are kind of pricey, but very high quality, and more adjustable than anything else I know of. They're kind of different looking, but in a good way IMO. www.helibars.com

Because the WO575s are so wide, the pullback doesn't help much. My arms are still almost straight out. And I think the KW bars are the same width as the 575. Good luck.

$800 bucks for bars and that does not even include the cables, plus you have to use perch mounts for your mirrors!!

And I thought PYO's were pricey!!

Yowzir!!!!

I went with Khromewerks on my 2010 FLHTC. I had em on my Street Glide too and they are perfect for me. I've had a lot of people sit on the bike and love the feel of them. I can sit back and put my feet up on the hwy pegs and feel like I was on my old Dyna Wide. They come back two inches and up two inches. They are the +2 Sweepers and are very reasonable at $79.99. I put them on myself on the SG but let the dealer do it this time. My two cents....
