Burly Brand Louie Bar 19" — Chrome Ape Hanger Handlebar
Some riders want a subtle upgrade. This isn't that bar. The Burly Brand Louie is for the rider who wants to be seen — tall, bold, and unapologetically old school. At 19 inches of rise, it's the most exaggerated version of the classic ape hanger silhouette, and it wears it proudly. The chrome finish is clean and traditional, the kind that catches sunlight at a stoplight and turns heads without trying. If you've been looking for a handlebar that completely transforms how your Harley looks and feels, this is it.

Key Features
19 Inches of Pure Attitude
There's a reason the ape hanger never goes out of style — it's one of the most recognizable silhouettes in custom motorcycle culture. The Louie Bar takes that silhouette and pushes it as far as it goes. At 19 inches of rise, your hands sit high, your arms open wide, and the whole posture of the bike changes. It looks like a statement before you even start the engine.
The Dimensions Work Together
The rise gets the attention, but the other numbers matter too. The 37.99-inch width gives you a natural, open arm position that doesn't feel strained at height. The 7.33-inch pullback draws the grips back toward you so your arms aren't reaching forward uncomfortably. Tall bars done wrong feel awkward after an hour. These are designed so the ergonomics actually work with the look rather than against it.
Chrome That Belongs on a Harley
The finish isn't an afterthought. This is deep, polished chrome — the kind that suits a Road King or a Heritage Classic the way it was meant to be suited. It complements stock chrome hardware, pairs well with custom builds, and holds up to the weather and use that comes with actually riding the bike rather than just showing it.
Cable and Electronic Throttle Compatible
A lot of ape hangers come with a disclaimer about throttle compatibility. The Louie Bar doesn't need one. Whether your bike runs a traditional cable throttle or the newer electronic throttle system, this bar is confirmed compatible — which matters across the wide range of Harley models this bar fits, spanning from carbureted EVO-era bikes all the way through current Milwaukee-Eight models.

Performance & Riding Experience
Going from a stock or lower bar to a 19-inch ape hanger changes the riding experience more than most people expect before they try it. The bike feels different underneath you — more laid back, more commanding. Your hands sit high, your chest opens up, and the whole riding posture shifts from hunched to relaxed. On a cruiser or bagger, that's exactly the feeling that suits the machine. The wide stance and measured pullback mean you're not fighting the bar to stay comfortable. A lot of tall bars look great in photos and feel awkward on the road. The Louie is designed so both things work — the look and the ride.
Installation Notes
Cable extensions and brake line extensions will likely be required due to the significant rise — plan for this before installation
Confirm your throttle type (cable or electronic) before ordering — both are compatible with this bar
Professional installation recommended if you're unfamiliar with handlebar swaps, particularly for routing cables and brake lines at this height
Always check local regulations regarding handlebar height before installing
