I'd go wild one over khromeworks. 1 1/4' vs. 1" and a better quality bar. Just my opinion I have had the khromewerks on mine previously.

Ditto on the Wild One 575s. Great looking bars, very comfortable and well made. Good value for the price imo.

Here is a side view of the Khrome Werks

Will the end of the handlebar be closer to the rider compared to stock.

Had the Wo 575's on 2 previous bikes. Was still able to use the stock mirrors. Will be doing them again on this one.

Okay, I have it narrowed down to the 575 or the 578. Which will give me the best comfort?

I was all set on these 575 as well , I've had WO before (14" apes on my RKC) but they do not do one to fit 2014/15 bikes, just got an email from them saying the bend is too tight for 1 1/4" bars on the new rushmores! ...... Dam, will have to rethink this .

You can put on a set of these, and also have internal wired heated grips... yaffe 12" monkey bars. They revised the bars to fit 14 and 15 CVO's. I personally had WO 575 on my older SG and changed them to the monkey bars and loved them. Had to install them on the new one.

The hand grips are closer to the rider allowing you to lean back more

yes they look like that!
Im thinking maybe the yaffe 8" monkey bars, i just want something thats going to be 2" back and 2" higher than stock bars, thats all.... in other words a direct replacement for the WO575 seeing as they don't fit the 2015 bikes.

When I was trying to decide on what size bars to put on, I had a forum member give me some great advise.  He said: "Always go one size taller than what you think".  I was originally thinking about 10" Yaffee's, so I ordered 12" and I'm glad I did.  Jesse is right, the 12's are like 13's.
