I had 16" LA Chopper Slim ***** bars but just put on some 16" Carlini Gangsta apes. The LA Chopper bars were a little more comfortable for me because they aren't as wide and have more pull back (but im only 5'7) plus they were easier to split lanes with in this LA traffic, but in my opinion the Carlini bars look way better and I love the 1.5" thick bars. Longest ride in a day so far was 450 miles and that was plenty with the badlander seat.

I went with 14" Chubbies and they're right at shoulder height for me - I'm 5' 11" with a C&C solo seat, which sits a little lower than stock. Love 'em - they're perfection. Longest ride is 9 hours (minus short fuel stops) and no discomfort at all.

[QUOTE=Redwood Road King;12365954]That is a badass lookin' bike man. Very nice.

Thank you!! Can't wait to get my Shotgun Shocks on it.
I just ordered my cables from LA Choppers when I got my bars (they say they work for 15"-17" apes) so I dont know the size, I just got wire at the local hardware store and extended my wires. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

As mentioned above, check out Wild 1 website: www.wild1inc.com for many pics. I recently had Wild 1 Chubby (1.25" diameter) 502's (12.5") installed along with chromed out controls diamond back cables. I'm 6'3'' and they work for me.
