Here's the link. http://www.cvoharley.com/smf/index.php?topic=10574.msg201481#msg201481 Say hi to everyone in "New Member Introduction" Plenty of answers here. Try using the Serach too. Lot's of cool threads on just about everything. Well, maybe everything! ;) Enjoy the site!


I just noticed you joined last August and these are your first 2 posts. Did you just get your new SERK? If so, best of luck with it!!! If you just got it, you'll need to do a lot more than handlebars. Let's see some pics and what you've done. If you have any questions, don't worry, we love helping you spend your money! ;D

I don't have the 515 but I do have the 518 (don't have much ape in me) and they look and feel super.
Here are the pics.

I've had it since Nov 06.
Did you have to change clutch or brake lines?

Since owned I have added
Slip on V&H Ovals
Oil Temp
Standard passager backrest for when we tour.
K&N Air Filter

I wasn't planning on changing turn signals am looking for more pictures of alternative handle bars.

I had to extend the wiring and replace the front brake line. Everything else fit. You also have to change the risers to stock Road King risers, with the WO's, and get a 1-piece riser clamp. I'm 5-9 and these bars are perfect. Great in town and on the road. No more Schwinn Bars!

How's your's holding up? Did you do anything to remap it?

Good luck with your mods. Let me know if you need anything else.

How tall are you? I am looking at the WO518. Dont want to be cramped with WO515's etc as I am 6'2".
