Kurt, hello & welcome from Missouri.
Bars are such a personal thing, what 1 person likes means nothing to everyone else.
I have the 12" mini-ape stock bars on my FW & love them. I would recommend checking with your local dealers, as many have a set up to test different bars. I would also search YouTube as they have a couple good videos on picking the right bars for you and the comfort triangle on any motorcycle.

I'm an ape man myself.... but like Micheal said... it is a very personal choice. I chose 19" Santee bars
One of the most popular setups is the Khrome Werks 2+2 Sweepers, whether Wide or Narrow. You'll find lots of threads on those. I've got the Wides, love the hell outta them. Just run a search on the site here for "Khrome Werks".

I'm in the midst of installing Factory 47s. 14" Malo bars.
Should have been a straight forward install. I called them and asked if any extensions were needed. They said nope bolt right up. Well, Nope, they dont. It will be worth it when I'm done. Just wish I had the correct answers going into it. I would have ordered everything I needed up front. Required the Namz extensions 8" and a +4 clutch and brake line. Should have the lines in by monday.
I will have a unique FW. 1 of the few with the OEM 12" mini-apes...I love them.

I’ve swapped my apes for t bars. The only problem is I’m now looking for something to cover up the gaps where the ape housing was.
I can’t find anything on HD for sale that is designed for the base of t bars.
anyone have any suggestions?
