Good to hear. I have the heritage style bars but have not put them on as yet on my 2013 RK. I'm 6'3" with a 34-35 sleeve lenght and I could use a little extra height and pullback. I read on the forum that a lot of people really liked these bars and that is why I bought them. Dealer told me these are the stock bars on the 2014 RK. I sat on a 2014 RK and the bars felt pretty good.

The heritage style bars were a big improvement over the stock bars on my 2012 RK. They got rid of the pain across my shoulders that the stock bars gave me after an hour in the saddle.

Excellent bar for the RK and the Heritage. Quality chrome and finish.

One of the first things I did on my RK. Also one of the best. Stock bars position is horrible. Neck and wrist pain gone instantly when I put on the heritage style bars.
