Anyone try HD Fused Handlebar
Has anyone tried the HD Fused Handlebar.
Im looking to lighten up the steering on the Tri Glide.
I know there are other bars out there, but trying to make things easy
on dealer.

I guess I gotta get out more. I don't know what a fused handlebar is.

I have them in my RGS, 2020. I went for looks, as I am not into pointy bars or anything really. They were not expensive then.
Most importantly for what I wanted was a more forward bar but not with hands out of fairing area.
Theyre 9 or 10 inches? Had a buddy that like the look so much he bought a pair but for him they were to apeish ?? Is that a word?
I usually ran 16 on my previous bikes. WG & RK. A fairing bike with tall bars looks retarded to me and defeats point of fairing.
They were also easy to run wires. Did it on mine, my buddies then back to stock on his. He took my old black factory bars.

I've only had a few H-D's that I was content with the OEM handlebars and that was the Heritage and the Softail Custom.
On my last two Ultra Classics I had H-D "Tallboys" on one and W.O. 577's on the other and was very happy with both.
On my '18 Tri-Glide I opted for Heli-bars (chromed) which are fully adjustable (including wrist angle).
They are expensive but are easy (or less labor expense) to install as the wiring (in factory conduit) is not routed inside of the bars and do not have to be extended.

After looking them up I see what they are. I didn't know they were called fused handlebars. When I was a kid we just called them z bars
