Default roadglide handlebars

New to forum and roadglide. Looking for advice on handlebars that will give me a little more pull back w/o having to change cables etc.
Any advice?

Try doing a search on "Roadglide Handlebars." At the top of the page you will see a Search Button. There have been many threads on this subject. I believe one of the suggestions are the Softail Heritage bars but I'm not sure.

If you need any help finding the topics, pm me and I'll give you a hand.

Welcome Sober!

WideGlide (pre-2006) bars work great and are very comfortable on RoadGlides! All cables & wiring works....

there are a ton of options... Wild1's seem to be one of the most often used.. you will find many opinions... like stated, do the search, get some coffee and sit back and Read.... I am using the 517's right now - they do offer a very different "feel" however, do give a very nice pull back - not for everyone - I also have the 513's - used them last summer - really want to get used to the 517's so they are on until at least through the summer...

I am going to the Wild1 0517 mini apes I called the boy's at Wild1 and they said this is the best bar as far as comfort without to much height. I have some similar on my FLHS and love them.

Call them and check it out they know what they are talking about.

I went with the Heritage soft tail bars. They are very comfortable and did not require new cables.
