My first post so be gentle. I have a 23 tri glide. I've put on the 1 1/2 inch DK tank lift and am looking at new bars. I helped by brother in law put 12 inch Dominator ape hangers in his 21 tri glide recently. When done it didn't look like he had enough clearance now to add any tank lift. I believe Kevin at DK has both the tank lift and aftermarket bars. I'm wondering if it was just his make of bars or is this a common problem?

Thanks. I've been looking at the KST bars but you can never tell how they will work from the photos. Did you extend your clutch cable and brake line or is the KST video accurate on just moving them?

You won't go wrong with the Khrome Werks two plus two narrows. 2 in up 2 back. All the accessories I've added to my trike these handlebars for the best edition I made for handling and comfort.

The clutch cable was extended, no need for new brake line there was enough there

You can adjust the tank back or forth

Just picked up my 21 Tri Glide to have new bars installed. Decided on the Khrome Werks 2+2 narrow version. Had a private bike shop do the install. Had a time getting the right ones after Dennis Kirk kept sending the wrong ones. Finally the shop ordered them directly from Khrome Werks. Had to get clutch cable extension and longer brake line to complete the job. Haven't taken it out yet but I climbed on it before loading it in the trailer. I could already tell it is big improvement over stock bars....I post riding results later.

Hi,on my 2024 Tri Glide I have Wild One 12.5 inch chubby bars and installed the DK Customs 1.5 inch tank lift with the 1 inch deluxe rear tank lift. There is plenty of room especially if you slide the tank back a little.

Well...took trike out with the new Khrome Werks bars (narrow 2+2) and oh what a difference they made. Somewhat different positioning now and sets me back a little further in fact going to look at my backrest see if I can change the position to set me back some. Private dealer did the install and did a great job. Had to extend the break line other than that no issues. Price was right way cheaper than Harley dealer....

KST Mayhem 12" bars on my 2016 and the tech did not have to extend the brake or clutch cable. Extensions where used on the wiring.
I put 2plus2 wide sweepers on my 17 and didn't have to change anything, moved some wiring around though. But what a huge difference it made in my bike.
