HD Touring Pull-Back Handlebar (Part # 56176-08)
Does anyone use these handlebars? If so, how do you like them?
As I understand it, they move your hands 2 inches back from the stock position and have the same width and wrist angle as the stock bars.
I actually like the stock width and wrist angle, but the 2 additional inches rearward would really help me.
Thanks for any input, guys.

I have the pullbacks on my bike. They do change the wrist angle inward a bit.
When I first put them on and rode around I was getting really bad wrist pain but I went and lowered the bars more and they now work great.

Inward? Do you mean knuckles more outward?
How much lower? Lower than the stock bars were?

Is the wrist angle close to the stock position?

I contemplated them but didn't like the wrist angle, sort of wheel barrow but not that extreme. I have a busted up wrist that didn't like the angle. Have Wild 1 575

The WO575's are on my short list, but I'm not sure about the width.

Work great and last a long time.
I am 5' 10" and have had them for 140000 miles on two different Ultras. Far more comfortable than the stock bars.

I don't have my stock bars anymore, gave them away to someone on the forum a long time ago. As I remember though, the width was comparable to the stock but further back. I am 5'7" and they are comfortable for me. Since they are 1 1/4" bars, easier to internal wire than a 1" HD
