I have a set of Chubby's 575 for a Bagger I am concern they are going to push the controls above the faring. any one have experence and pics of their installation
Well they bring your hands up, back and out a little bit. Perfect if you ask me. Of course you can adjust them back and forth to suit you . They are way better than stock. As far as looks no comparrison, fat with internal wiring
They work great in my opinion. The wider feel makes it easier to handle. I installe dmine a little turned down to set them back behind the fairing. But beware if you use the fairing mirrors like the FLHX, they supposedly get in the way
I like what I see on your bikes with those Chubby bars installed but what about wiring? The Ultra has wires running for the CB, Intercom, Radio and gods knows what else. If you put on those higher bars do you need to splice those wires or is there a wiring kit available? I'm just wondering how major a job it is to install all this.
I've got the WO575's on my Street Glide. You can rotate the bars as high or low as you want them, so it's completely up to you as to how high your controls sit. I've got mine rotated a little to the low side. This way I don't have any problem with visibility out of my mirrors and my hands and controls are still shielded by the fairing. Here's a link to post I submitted a while back about the install: https://www.hdforums.com/m_321033/tm.htm
