Default "Black" APE HANGERS ?

Any one know of a good siteto pick up some 12-12 1/2 "Black Ape Hangers" for a 1998 Softail Custom?

Pref dimpled, knarled and pre-drilled for wiring. With out spending a fortune !

Any advice would be much appreciated, I havent had much luck.

Thanks Fellas, Jason

best bet will probably be to find the ones you want and then have them powder-coated. PC should run you around $70-75 depending on the coater.

Like mentioned above, find a pair of chrome ones and powedercoat them. You may be able to find some seconds or scratched for cheaper. My local powdercoaters only charge about $30-$40 for handlebars.

Looks like I need to ride my bike down to Texas next time I need a coater to save a few bucks. Good excuse for a road trip.

Got mine from a place that sells on ebay. Hill County(or Country) Cycles. They have many different sizes and kinds of chrome apes that they will powder coat for you for an extra $60. They also have extended cables/hoses in stock and they know what lengths you need to put their bars on your bike.

+1 on the $40 to have your bars powdercoated locally.I bought mine in chrome from the place above then took them to a local guyfor powder.
