Let me be the first who apparently doesn't find these the next best thing to sliced bread.
I put these on and within 10 minutes I am getting worse lower shoulder pain than I did with the stock RK bars. I have rotated back and forth to no relief.
I had Heritage Style bars which found comfortable except for the wrist angle so after reading hundreds of threads about MBB I switched.
These are 10's not 12's but they are still a lot higher than the heritage style so I don't think the extra 2 inches would make that much difference.
I have a backrest on my seat, that is not the problem, I have a knife pain in my middle back that wasn't there with the Heritage bars.
Now I have a big problem. If it was a matter of just swallowing the cost of new bars I could live with it, but I have all my wires installed internally and after that job, I have my doubts about them coming back out without being damaged.
I wish I had of left the Heritage Style on.

 

That sucks to hear. That's always the tough part about something like seats and handle bars. People can tell you how great they are, but my body is different than your body is different than their body, but until you can actually try the product out (which is not always possible), then you'll never know.

If you're worried about pulling out the wires, then I'd consider selling the bars with the wires and everything run in them already. It will save the buyer the hassle, plus with the extra money you charge for the hand controls, you can pick up a used pair on eBay or something, or maybe even work out getting back their hand controls in the process of the sale.

 

Wow sorry to hear that. I love mine. Maybe it is the backrest putting you at an akward position

 

I feel your pain bro. After 1 riding season with 14" Wild Ones, I'm wishing I never would have gone to ape hangers. Maybe I'll throw it back in the shop and put some lower bars on when the wife goes out of town and I'm forced to drive the mini-van (toddlers).

 

Find somebody that wants the MMB bars and swap him along with some cash being exchanged...
All you need is the switch housings and wiring...
Have new bars you want to install ready for when the switches arrive you wont be down long...

Guarantee if you put them up for sale already wired. someone will buy them. I would offer money for them if they were higher.

 

Why not find someone on the forum who has bars that might suit you better, wired up, and make a trade? Complete bar for complete bar.....

 

sorry to hear that. Just put wild one 14" on my 12 SG and love them. It was a pain in the ars to wire mine. I couldn't imagine not liking them. Sorry, but try to do the swap thing. It might work. Just post it. They will come.

 

I've got 12" PYO bars on my SG and love them!

Place a ad over in the classified section and I bet you will have them sold pretty fast...

 

If you haven't give it few weeks to try get use to them. I know when I switched bikes to my current I was a little sore because of different handlebar position but got use to it. Think it was matter of using different muscles and adapted to it over time.
