They came in today and 5 hours later they're in. Had a little hiccup because the Kuryakyn risers I put in for the old bars one side wouldn't come out, Allen head stripped, so I had to leave them in. Tried to call Helibars and they're closed on Friday...Jewish? I don't know

I'm bettin' they're the pussies whiskers. I've watched the Helibar YouTube video with the inventor sitting on a Goldwing moving the bars all over the place. He basically states it is impossible not to find the perfect bar position and that the bars tend to act like a Superbrace up top. Nice purchase!! ..........will be waiting for the "ride" video.
Here's the video with the "man"................https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OYrKznB0VQg
I'm going to do a decent ride so I can get a better idea of where my sweet spot is. By the time I was done I was too tired. Thanks for the link.Quote:

I'm very happy with mine. Installed em maybe six months ago and I'm glad I did. No more shoulder blade pain. I'd recommend em. Yes, they're a little spendy, but they're very well crafted and definitely tighten up the feel of the steering.
I think you'll be pleased when you get em dialed in for yourself. Congrats!
The only problem with mine is I had to leave the Kuryakyn risers in because of that stripped Allen head which limits my range somewhat but I'm still able to tweak it to a certain extent. Overall, it was worth the dough for the limited range I'm able to get.Quote:

The previous owner had put Heli Bars on my '13 B. Man O Man, what great bars! Quality workmanship. They can be "tweeted" to every direction possible. Doubt if I would have spent the $$$ to try them. Now I wouldn't be without them.
My 130# G/F gave mine a try & she loved w/ them too. She put a pair on her '15 Scout. No more shoulders, neck, back any pain from being even a tad uncomfortable or out of shape in any way. As near perfect as one can get.
These are so great I have two pair, the pair on the F6 fit me like a glove but on the other bike I am still trying to get
comfy.
The Bars are well worth the money, second best accessories on the F6b.
Paired mine up with the Mustang seat. Wow !! What a difference. Lot a $$$, but worth every penny.
Good saddle, good bars, good windshield, on a great bike = Great fun!
Between the Russell Day Long and these bars it completely transformed the ride from somewhat pleasurable to being capable of riding so comfortably any distance and any amount of time to the point where the only obstacle is my ability to stay awake.
