These bars would be perfect in every way except that the hole at the bottom for the internal wiring is at the front of the horizontal tube and not on the underside. A real disappointment as it appears that the best way to get a set of bars with perfectly placed holes is to buy a set of dimpled bars and drill them yourself. Sorry folks ... just calling as I see it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will these fit my Throttle By Wire Harley?
No — these handlebars are not compatible with Throttle By Wire (TBW) models. Check your model year and engine type before ordering.
Do I need new risers to install these?
If your bike already has OEM 1 1/4" risers, no. Other models can use them with aftermarket 1 1/4" risers and a compatible top clamp.
Are the bars drilled for internal wiring?
Yes — dimpled and drilled throughout for clean internal routing of throttle and clutch cables.
What size are the grip mounts?
The bars taper from 1 1/4" at the clamping area down to 1" where the grips mount.
Will I need to replace my control cables?
Stock cables may work depending on your model and current setup — measure your bar height and cable routing before ordering to confirm fitment.

so far
Got everything on and looks good but then it snowed. boooo
The only problem was the holes going in (upper) were a little small. Used a die grinder to open them up
Fit nice. The extensions weren’t quite long enough so I made my own and layered the to slide into the bars more easily.
handle bars had holes for wiring made it easy to wire up and install switches bars were good quality
Terrific product for the price. Immaculate condition on arrival, no burrs or sharp edges in the wiring holes. Prompt shipping as well. Very satisfied.
