Stock. They seem comfortable to me.

2019 Tri-Glide.......
I just had a set of the HD Batwing reach bars installed. I basically do not have rotator cuffs in either shoulder and the pain was getting so bad after a few miles that I was considering selling the Tri-Glide, but did some experimenting and found that if I leaned forward enough to keep my elbows slightly bent, it solved the problem, so I had the reach bars installed. BIG improvement.
They do hold my hands at slightly different angles and that will take some getting used to, but they allow me to sit upright instead of leaned slightly forward, and still have my elbows bent. I'm 5'10" and as a side benefit, they push my head back into the sweet spot for the speakers, I can distinctly hear all four of them now. Sitting back farther from the windshield, I did find that my face gets more raindrops than before.
YMMV

I bought the 2+2 wide sweepers but haven't installed them yet.
Getting mixed thoughts on if I have to replace cable, lines and wires.
Seems like I should.
Any idea?

I have no idea what year Trike you are running my old 09' I needed to swap the clutch cable (+6) not hard just time consuming, for a first timer working on one. Everything else worked out fine Wires and brake hoses even the dreaded green connector for the throttle sensor in the right bar. The difference was night and day for me... I also was considering getting rid of the trike because of the misery I was going through riding. It is expensive to have a Harley shop change them Independents are usually more reasonable regardless of how or who does the swap it's in my thinking it's worth it. The alternative is never enjoying the ride for the rest of time you wish to ride. Good luck on your choice think about it and I believe I know what you will do. Ride safe Fred.

It's a 2013 TG.
Personally I don't mind a longer clutch cable because it seems to give a smooth and easier pull.
I'm new to anything that has a fairing. Never had anything but a windshield and that comes off for around town. All this tourpak, gauges and radio crap is all new to me.
Coming from a 03 RKC I bought on 05. Shovels and a Pan before that.
I notice the dingle ball bungie cord on your brake handle. Is that your Ebrake?
