Credit goes to Brodo.Waggins for this important thread.
I thought the Heli-bars reached out further to the rider so we shorter guys would not need to lean forward on our R18B/TC's.
On the Heli-bars, Brodo measured the distance from the Marshall speakers logo to the center of the endcap on the handle grips. I then did the same on my R18TC.
His distance was 11.5 inches. My distance was 12 inches.
THIS MEANS THE HELI-BARS DONT REACH OUT FURTHER AT THE OUTER END OF THE GRIPS.
I suspect the distance from the Marshall logo to the inside of the grips would be greater on the Heli-bars.
Take a look at the following two pics and note surprisingly that the stock grips are further away from the Marshall logo at the chrome end cap.
