The bars seemed very comfortably positioned for me , let me sit straight up , instead of that slight - slouch forward lean feeling . Actually felt like they added power steering to the bike ... LOL .
Your right GB wish we could sample the bars like fitting a pair of shoes , unfortunately it's trial and error for us , so hope it all pans out . I know what feels right on one brand of bike mat not feel the same on another .

- April 20, 2014, 19:19:21 PMThose are quite a bit longer, eh? Looks like the new bars put your hands maybe 4-5" behind the current bar's, and turns the grips more inline with the bike. It would be nice to get a test ride on those before buying. But that would be hard to do.

- April 20, 2014, 19:13:31 PMWOW a lot longer then the stock bars on the 800. Not sure I would like them.

As you can see these are considerably longer bars . When I first bought them , and my seat was still installed on the bike , I placed them on top of the bars just to get a feel and I really liked the positioning were they laid . I have this mod on the 2015 winter list . Oh and yes the protective tubing is still on the bars so not to scratch

I do have the new bars here in the basement ( long horns ) I'm going to be putting on the 1500 for 2014/2015 winter . I'll take a pic of them on top of the stock bars for ya'll tomorrow . It's a HUGE difference .
Did I miss those pictures somehow? I'm thinking of new bars or risers, and was doing some research....

PastorDude always said if there ain't no pictures, it didn't happen...I just installed a set of Flanders 1" part number 650-08783 cruzer star H bars. 9" height, 18.5" pullback, 33" wide with an 8.5" center. I am 5'9" and I can lean back rather than stretching to reach stock bars now. Had to reroute cables but none had to be replaced with longer ones. I will be getting longer throttle cables though as they get all over the tank when you crank the bars to the right. Once I get the cables and neaten up the rerouting it's gonna be purty sweet
