Looks awesome. I was thinking about upping to 14-16, but 18's look nice. How do they feel and how long are your usual rides? I have to keep comfort in mind as I ride down to the beach a few times a month which is about hour and 30 mins.

Nice apes, always liked them. Hope there no shoulder heigth bar law where you are. They should ride pretty good as long as the bugs and rain don't go down yer arms.
You got good taste in bars dude. They look badd *** too.

bars- $65
cables, banjo bolts-$180

They have a little flex with stock bushings but I am going toinstallbetterones to stiffen it up.
