Going Ape!
I'm looking to install ape hangers on my Wide Glide as a Winter project, and hoping some of you guys may have some photos of 14" to 18" bars on your Dynas to post for inspiration.
I'm presently running drag bars, which i really like, but am looking for a change.
I'm worried that once I install apes, I may grow to not like them. Even though the stock mini apes were comfortable on my Wide Glide, I didn't care for the look, though some taller and fatter bars may be more appealing.
Any photos and good/bad experiences with your ape installs would be much appreciated.

It's my first bike with apes and I love it. All my next bikes will have apes, next time I'll put 20'
