I have installed KW sweepers on my last two bikes and have nothing but love for them. I always opted for the wide sweepers, but I notice many opt for the narrow version. Below are the specs for each. Notice that the wide version has a dramatic difference in wrist angle and also a higher rise. These were huge to me because the stock HD bars have a horrific wrist angle. This is really pronounced on a trike when you’re making a full lock left turn and have to squeeze the clutch. Talk about a mangled wrist!!!

Once I went to the KW’s all was perfect. I’m going to go for these again for my 18 TG, but thought some of you may want to see the diffferences.

The 2+2 Wides was the first thing I installed on my '16 I bought in 2020. It made a world of difference and what was already on it weren't even the stock bars. The dealer gave me a new one for a loner last year that was bone stock. I don't understand how anybody other than a midget could ride one bone stock. I felt so cramped. Lol.
 
Based on reviews I went with 2+2 to replace the mini apes that were on my 14 Tri Glide. Way better. I have 12” Yaffee Classic apes on my 07 Electra Glide and love them but turning is way different as you all know.
 
Handlebar question

Hello. I am new to this forum and new to trike riding. I am having difficulty locating the handlebars referred to as 2+2 narrow sweepers. I have looked at the KlockWerks site as well as the Khromewerks site and cannot find them. Can someone please help clear up my confusion? I am 5 feet tall and really need to pull the bars back.

I just received and almost finished installing my set (600319j from Dennis Kirk.

Nannette…Welcome to Trike Talk..👍👍..
 
all sold out

All the KW narrows seem to be sold out. I tried Dennis Kirk, KW, J&P, and a few others. Anyone out there have some KW 300519 bars to sell?

They have been tough to find all spring/summer. My suggestion is to keep looking daily on the links provided. They sell out as fast as they come in.

You will love these bars and are worth the wait!
