I had ergo up bars until last week. Moved up to 16's now. There are pictures of the ergo up bars in my albums. I will have the ergo up bars for sale if you are interested.

Did you guys have to go to longer cables with the Ergos? They say the rise is 12" but they don't look as tall as other 12's I've seen. Thanks

Thanks for the props.

Personally I was able to use the stock cables with the Ergo Back Bars but had to switch to bar mounted mirrors as the fairing mounted ones were obscured by the bars and my new hand and arm position. I'm guessing the same situation with the Up bars. I had mine plugged but later switched to a custom inner fairing with no mirror holes.

Here's a pic showing both sets of mirrors before I took off the fairing mounted ones:



Several manufacturers make fancy plugs for the holes in the fairing and your H-D dealer should have some black rubber ones. Others have found the appropriate size plugs at Lowes and Home Depot as well.
