Maybe those heritage bars might be an option also. Not to keen on having to change brake and clutch cables, but think I could do a bar swap no problem.
What other bars would fit without having to change cables?
KromeWorks +2 are what I have and by far the best bars I have ever used. Brings them back and up plus the wrist angle is fantastic. NO cable change needed!
The best advice here is to see if you can fine others who have different bars on a bike like yours that will let you sit on them to see how they feel to you.
Why yes I do park in my garage. I must be missing the comment reason?
You need the next longer clutch cable for the wo578 which is only $45. I highly recommend them. Every ride I like them more and more
He is asking if he can park in your garage. I think he likes how big and empty it is.
I too went with the WO578 10 inch. The only cable change for me was the clutch cable (+4). Tricky part for me was removal of the heated hand grip on the right hand. Just had to be careful. All the info I needed was on this forum.
This mod should have been the first thing I did to my bike after purchase. Minor changes in the handlebar positions makes major changes on the long trips.
Plus 1 on that. Put mine on a couple weeks ago and love them.

I went with the Kromewerks 2+ 2+ sweepers and presto best thing I ever did 2inches higher and 2 inches closer.
They are slightly wider bars though but are so much better than standard FLHX bars.
I would go sit on a few mates bikes and see what suits you!
