There are a couple of aftermarket shorter bars, I believe 2 lenghts. I was able to get it on a RKC with no prob and it takes factory turn signals. Matched perfect on mount ends and chrome is great quality. think they are 30 to 40 bucks.
& where can I get one of those? You happen to have pictures!?

Sorry it took long to post this, I was out of commision for 5 days. This is the best pic I have. It is I believe 2" shorter than stock. It came out of a JP Cycles catalog, they are also on the web. I can sell you a stock one Bahhahah!
I used a Street Glide bar on my 08 FLHRC. You just need to get one that is designed to work with tail light above it as the later Street Glides don't have tail lights. Also you may want to take the bulbs out of the downlight if you're not going to take your plate off the hoop.
Btw you can access the bolts through the tail light hole after you remove it. No need to pull the tire off. I use a half in ratchet wrench with a hinged head and it works like a charm.
I have an 11 RKC. I bought one of the Street Glide rear light bars. I love the look of them! Well, I spent an afternoon tearing down my rear fender to attach said light bar, only to find out the electrical connectors don't fit. The mounting holes don't line up either. Expensive mistake, but I did recoup some of my money and sold the light bar in the for sale section on here. Love the look of that light bar, but it simply won't fit on a RK. Sucks that the MoCo designed it that way, but at some point I may get the Kuryakyn one.
On my 12 RKC I installed a 09 Street Glide rear light bar. I bought it here on the forum classifieds and it fit perfect. Everything lined up good. You just plug it into the circuit board.
