been there done that with Heritage bars....they worked for me by getting rid of the upper shoulder pain. But the look of those bars on a Road King was not right to me. Went to 10" mini apes from Wild 1 and about a month ago had 16" apes installed. Go sit on a bike with apes, bet ya a tank of gas that you get apes!

I just put on wild one 502's on mine and couldn't be happier. I needed longer clutch cable, brake line and control wires. The bars are notched for the TBW but no need for longer wires. I did it myself over a weekend and the most time consuming part was the internal wiring

I just installed these bars on my 11 RK this past Sunday, took me about an hour and a half no extra parts needed, Best $79.00 I've spent. These are the the bars that the police RK is built with and they are much more comfortable.

Hi I have a 2011 Road King and am looking at swapping out the Stock bar with the Heritage Style bar also. What I am not understanding is everyone talks about more pull back with this bar. From what I see in the chart Harley has is it is 2" less pull back from the stock road king bar but has 5" more rise

Can someone please explain how it has 3more inches of pull back?
