Default Klockwerks Ergo or Khromewerks Sweepers on Road King

When I purchased the bike I swapped the stock wheel-barrel handle bars for Heritage Softail bars (56569-86) and liked them alot. After my accident they put Heritage High Bars (56902-08) and I don't like the wrist angle. I have been researching bars all summer and tried a few bikes here and there. I have yet to see a Road King with either Ergo Bars or Sweepers. I've ridden bat-wing bikes with both these bars and like them and debating between the two as my next set of bars.

Does anyone have any photos of either Klockwerks Ergos or Khromewerks Sweepers on a Road King?

I;m somewhat in the same boat, upgraded to the heritage style bars and ready for the next step.

I leaning towards the Khrome Werks +2 sweeper but would like to see a Road King with the bars.

It may not help much as far as aesthetics, but do a search for Sweepers on RG. They are the same bars as used on RK's. I have the Sweepers on my bike and I like them a lot, I wish I could help you more. I did a search for RK's and found one post, but the guy never did post pics of his bike after he installed them.

Having had both of those bars and the Heritage bars I can tell you the Wild1 502 10" mini apes look 10 times better and are more comfortable.

Just a suggestion.

Also, the Ergos are made for batwing bikes and will be super wide in the middle. Might not look good on a Road King.
If I had to pick between the bars you mentioned the Sweepers would be it. If you do a search for sweepers you'll find a ton of guys have put them on their bikes.

I have the Wild One 8.5'' baby apes and love them. I also tried the Heritage Style bars but hated the wrist angle.

I have been searching...but have yet to find a picture of these bars on a bike WITHOUT a fairing. Unfortunately, even in Chicago I have a hard time finding a place to "try" out some of these bars. I've been researching for most of the summer on what I want to do. I've heard good and bad on WO502 / WO515 / WO513 and am a little gun shy on $200 with out any personal experience with them, the $60 for sweepers isn't as hard to swallow.
