Default RE: lets see some ape hangers

I have a question for any or all of you. Do you have any problems on long rides with your arms, shoulders ect? I love the look, but not sure how I would do on a long ride with them.
Thanks for any help here

I had shoulder and lower back pain after about 300 miles with the stock bars. With the taller apes I have ridden several 700 to 800 mile days with no pain.

Not really pain, but more of a muscle workout in my shoulders for about the first 500 miles or so with the stock bars. I got used to it though. I just wasn't used to having my arms in that position. Nothing abnormal now though.
