those look wide as a mother lol... were they awkward to get used to? I know they look fly - that's for sure

 

Yeah they are pretty wide, but I like em. Not awkward at all if you've ridden on apes before. Definitely different from the low stock bars. You will get used to it after a few quick rides.

 

Those are 1.25 right. So the 1.5's are wider than that

 

Yes 1.25. I believe the 1.5s are a tad higher and wider and you will also have to change the risers. Those things aint cheap.

 

oh yeah I see that... an extra 2 bills... hmmm so then I am thinking if I did 1.5 I would be better off going with 14's cause they would actually be 15" or so...

 

I was in the exact same boat as you a few months back on this decision. The thick 1.5's look dope no doubt. I just couldnt justify the price of the risers after I paid premium for the bars. Plus I have a chrome cover over the stock risers that match my nacelle. If you stick with the 1.25" dia bars, go with the 16's. You wont regret it.

 

<--- Lose the football. I'd do that right away.

Nice bike!

 

Your bike will look great with the apes. Not to change the subject, but went to your page. You do some sick work.

 

Thanks man... I love neotraditional and new school art... tattooing can be fun but a lot of days it just feels like work cause you do a bunch of stuff you have no interest in lol....

 

Whoa! I agree
I'm trying to get back to FL for my next duty station. I think I've found my new tattooist
