Smile Fatboy---carlini flying apes or original apes

I am about to do a handle bar change on my 2003 Fatboy. Any chance you folks with the Carlini flying and or original apes could post up current pictures of your bikes. Not sure which way i want to go. Im also liking the wide base of the burly apes.
Thanks in adv

I'd browse through here. You'll see tons of options. Some of the older posts have dead links so I'd start at the end and work backwards.

Stock bars from a Heritage Softail Classic will fit and can be had for cheap. It's a popular handlebar for comfort and price.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

If you are going to spend the $$ on apes, I would recommend the Flying or Evil Apes (vs the Original Apes) with the nice curve in the bars. Remember, the Flying Apes are 1.5" higher than the stated height. Ron



16" Flying Apes.

+1 on what Ron said..... I am partial to the Flying Apes. I put on the 14's x 1.5" diameter and love them.
