Casper should know
Just going out for the first time
grips are a good deal higher and closer but straighter
All cleaned up for the Bike show in Clarion Fall Festival of Leaves
I have no knowledgeof 14' and newer my 09" has a cable clutch there is a difference with hydraulic clutch all I needed was a +6 cable for clutch. Wide sweepers I believe are 3.3 inches wider and grip angle is a bit straighter, good luck on your choice a very persona one. ride safely fearless

I used some 6" wiring extensions, it just made things easier. I had changed the bars before but didn't like the ones I had gotten at all, so I knew it would help.
You might need to grind some of the plastic away where the clutch and brake hose lines tuck inside the black plastic "dashboard" (where the six switches are,) because you end up running them a little straighter than before, but that's about it.
Maybe rotate your banjo bolts a little to straighten the lines out, the angle changes. Just loosen the fastener enough to barely rotate the fittings so you don't get any air in there and re-torque.
Here's a great thread with step by step pics for changing bars on a Rushmore. https://www.hdforums.com/forum/new-r...-included.html

Pull back handlebars
I'm sold on the Helibars. There's a set on my 2015 Triglide now and I can finally reach the handlebars in comfort. They are adjustable and pull back a few inches better than the touring pull-backs. Helibars makes a set for the Freewheeler. They seem expensive; I paid $700.00, but that was "installed".

Me and my riding partner are considering Tri-Glides ('18 model year) and I like the idea of adjustable bars.
