Yes, but not 16"ers. Mine are 13" and I love them. Here are a few shots.

Cheers!

not a train, but here are mine on my standard. same platform. I like them, but no more high speed runs for long periods of time. The wind is a killer!!

Drag spec 16" big Buffallos on mine . Anything under 75 mph is fine after that it could get a little wobbly from the wind .

Mine are 1 1/4 16" apes on an '07 train. I like them much better than the drags, but like the others have said the wind is ruff above about 75mph. I think I'm gonnaget a quick detach windshield for longer highway runs.

HD fat mini-apes here..love 'em.

Tough choice I almost went with the Street Slammers...HD website says you have to change the cables for Street Slammers, but I'm no expert.
I sat on a bike with Slammers, nice, better than stock for me, but I wanted something different and I got a good deal on slightly used apes.

I have 12.5" inch Wild 1 Chubbys on mine, and the wind was pretty brutal on the interstate. I got a Windvest and that solved the problem.
