Default Handle Bar Change

I've been considering changeing the 10" mini apes on my SB for either 14" apes or maybe flat track or beachtype bars with 4" risers. Any one have pictures of their handle bar changes foran example?

I can't find it now, but someone replied to a post a couple days agoabout black apes on a Bob and his sig pic showed, IIRC, a Bob with black beach bars. Not sure of the risers. Hopefully he'll see this thread.

My sig shows my WG with 14" Chubby Apes. I know it's a different bike, but the fork to frame height is the same.

These are Flanders Wide flat track bars in black "pre dimpled for Harley" they're very comfortable, and require no new cables.

Changed bars on 04 FXdwgi from mini apes to HD Swingbacks. Much improved position and no more
