Most comfortable handlebars
Just curious, what you all find most comfortable, especially high mileage riders.....I see this preoccupation with apes, but personally I have been adjusting mine down...what do the rest of you find?

Khrome Werks Sweepers. They move your hands a couple inches farther apart and they straighten out your wrists a bit. Way more comfortable than stock for long rides. Not expensive and they use stock cables and wires.
Also, lots of people like the +2 sweepers. They are similar but come back a bit more and you'll need longer cables. Somebody who has them can be more specific.

Put Heritage bars on my Road King. It was nice because they went on without having to change cables or extend wiring. Put 1400 miles on it over the summer and have been very happy with them.

over 3k miles on my WO502's and so far real comfortable. I'm thinking of going 14" tho. But everyone is different. For me I think 14's would be perfect

I rotated my stock bars up to where they are parallel to the ground and find that very comfortable for long rides. I would like to try apes but have not got around to it yet. I feel like the higher my hands are the more comfortable my shoulders will be on all day rides. Just above shoulder height should be great.
