I put the HD 2" Pullbacks on my 07... No cable change...I like them but i am 6' tall...The angle is Different than stock...If you want the same angle as stock bars, don't use those...Talk to Chubby's or other bar Mfg's or try to sit on somebody's bike with different bars...If i was shorter i would use a Ergo bar of a Chubby....Do your homework...Get them a bit higher and 3" pullback and do the cables...Don't half *** it...You won't regret.

I'm 6' have a 02 FLHTCI with a corbin dual touring saddle, which sits back farther than the stock seat, I tried harleys(got the longer clutch,throttel cables) extended reach bars but the angle really bothered my wrists, so I went with the ergo bars by klock works, I got the middle ones and these worked out good for me, the ends are more straight like a drag bar. took awhile to get used to having my wrists straight but on long rides it was just the ticket.

I find myself riding one handed way too much with the stock bars on my 2010 Limited trying to stay comfortable.
(love that cruise control). The HD dealership parts guy told me that I'd have to change out the brake line with the HD pullback bars, "No problem, I can bleed brakes", I said. Then he tells me that on the ABS bikes the dealer has to "recalibrate em" it will cost mega bucks to do that and change the cables etc. etc. So now I'm looking at the Klock Works Ergo Up bars. Their ad says no cable or wiring changes needed.
So, if anyone has any first hand knowledge. How's do the Klock Work Ergo bars compare to the HD pullbacks or to the WO575's? And what's the straight **** on the recalibrating the ABS brakes if you need to change out a brake line? Thanks.

I put the HD Pull back bars on my '09 Ultra and they made all the difference in the world to me. (I have a 32" reach) I had to use a longer clutch cable but everything else was able to be swapped over. The wrist angle is different than the stock bars so it took me about 200-300 miles to get used to it. I only have two regrets: I did not have them internally wired and I didn't switch them out sooner.
