Good buy... I thought the box looked familiar. Looks like the same bars and height as mine. Should look awesome when installed.

Good looking ride...

I'm setting up an appointment to get these installed in the next week or so...

I like those bars. Good looking bike! If I bought a '14, that is the color I would choose.

Quick question, Harley is playing games now saying I need all the brake lines to put on the 502's and replace the riser because of the bigger diameter. Is that what you had to do?

Jimmy.  I went with the WO 577.   12".  I love em. My hands are over the fairing.  Mo problem here tho.  Brian has the 578s.   Only 10".  You might want to look at those too.   Stuart

Here's my SERK with Flander's Mini Apes.  These have a bit more pullback and are very comfortable.

Here's the Wild One 8.5" Mini Apes on my SERK4.  Wider than the Flanders and a bit lower but very comfortable.

I am curious...what do you think of the wrist angle of the Flanders mini apes compared to the Wild1 8.5" baby apes ?? For me, if the wild1's were just a tad less wide they would the great!, but overall I am very happy.

The Flander's are a bit more angled down vs straight knuckles in the wind but I like them on my SERK.  However, I completely agree on the W1's about 1.5 - 2" narrower would be perfect.  I've had them so long I no longer notice.

Thank you... I appreciate your opinion!

I like the width and angle of the stock handlebars on my 2013 FLHRSE5. I need more reach, no more than 8"-12". Which bar would give the same width and angle would you recommend?

I'm sure this has probably been answered but, i like those bars. did you have to buy any additional parts (wires, hydr line extensions or mounting) for the install?
how much if a pain was feeding the wires threw the bars?
TIA

For the WO513's I was able to use all the stock lines and wiring. The hydraulic lines are easily long enough. The wiring was shortened, but still had just enough to work with. I think I would have liked the 10" vs the 8.5", but the wiring would not be long enough for that deal. I had to get the adapter to fit the CVO mounting area because the new bars are only 1 inch in the center and the bar mounting on our bikes is for 1 1/4 bars.
Running the wires thru the bars was not that bad, but taking the wiring connectors apart and back together was time consuming. I pulled the harness thru the bars tied with a thin cord and a little soap water. So, at the end of the day, I am happy!

Thanks for the info.
Can you give me a break down on prices and part numbers you used for the project?
I was at the stealership today to order the mounting kit for the aux lights I'm doing and asked about the heritage style bars. The parts guy told me i wouldn't need any additional parts to do that swap, so I wondered over to the shop area and asked them how much they would charge to do the bars, ready for this?? He told me the labor alone would be starting at $400.00. They're frigging nuts. I have to find me a good local indy.

Labor to install WO502 on my 2014 was 7 hours just over 600 dollars so you are getting a fair deal.
