Signature Handle Bar 12" Chrome on a 2016 Road Glide
We under stand it can be hard to choose between the 14" or 12" rise Signature handle bar for 2015-2017 Road Glides. So here is some pictures to show how a Chrome 12" Signature looks. Notice the peak of the bar is even with the top of the fairing (not the glass like a 14"). Keep in mind you can adjust this bar because we have put a slotted hole for the riser pin. Always make sure the handle bar has our signature Factory 47 badge on the bottom right corner. The 12" Signature handle bar allows you to use all your stock cables and wires. Plus you do not need to modify anything. The bottom step down is machined out of DOM so there is no weld. The grip is double swaged with a hole for the new control pins. All Signatures have holes for internal wiring and slotted for throttle-by-wire. Most customers ask our opinion on which bar is better the 14" or the 12" and to be honest that is all based on your height and preference, but we can tell you that 90 percent of Signatures ordered are 14" and we have never received a customer complaint on that height. But we will always advise choosing a 12" over a 10" because the 10" is so close to stock it doesn't offer the same look, plus keep in mind as you pull the handle bar back toward you the grips move downward. Most customers that decide to go with the 12" want to play it safe and in this case if you choose a 12" or a 14" they booth look great.
Get the most out of your pre 2013 Road Glide wires.
Factory 47 understands it is expensive to switch handle bars. You have the bars, cables, wires and labor. So to help you out here is a quick little tip to help you pre 2013 Road Glide owners out. We found out on this 2009 Road Glide that the main wire harness can be un clipped from inside the fairing allowing around 12"s more slack. Also note if you take the throttle by wire harness and do not run it through the fairing it also gains you a lot of slack. We where able to run factory wires on this 2009 Road Glide.
