I have factory police bars on my Ambassador. They work great. On my EV I
put a
set of Harpers bar backs. What a pain to install.
The cables are too short, but not by much, so I rerouted them out of the
looms,
the right side chrome cover on the steering head will not fit anymore. But
they
do make riding much more comfortable.
