Default Very Pleased

I was finally able to get out and enjoy my SG with WO578 bars and my painted inner I did this winter over the weekend. That is amazing how much these bars really make the ride so much better. Your not slumped anymore and the wind never hits your hand at the top of the fairing. I am very pleased and hope whoever has done these mods are also pleased.

Good to hear. What size bars did you go with? Any pics to put me over the edge on buying them?

I installed the same bars....but I have mine pushed as far forward as possible. I like how they feel so far but my hands are above the fairing. My hands go numb on cold mornings like they used to on my fatboy. I may try pulling them back and lowering them later.....
