Thanks! I like them better than the Yaffes and they cost half as much!

Those bars look sweet, but no offense, 8" can hardly be called ape hangers.

The 2+2 current ones are the wide. I'm 6" and they are as far forward as they can go. I would prefer them an inch or so forward more, but they are comfortable .. I'm just very picky

thanks
Don

I'm not sure...I thought the clutch line, in particular, was tough to get routed exactly where I wanted it. I think if I was going to go taller, I'd pop for longer hoses as well.
