Default Something you Bobber owners might wanna try!

Ive been toying with the idea of going with some taller apes, but i got to thinkin, maybe i can adjust mine to make them look taller. Check it out, might not be for some of you, but i love it!

They certainly look taller, so what did you do?

I wonder if the riser was loosened and the apes tilted forward a little?

Bingo. It works and I feel more comfortable to me. I think I moved mine about 5 inches forward.

Exactly, just loosen to two bottom bolts and push forward until you reach the desired height!

I just removed the stock 10" bars and bought a set of 14" apes. I'd post pictures if I knew how.

Mine came forward like that from the dealer, but due to being vertically challenged, I couldn't reach that well, so had to pull them back some. That does look good though...

Later,

I had a couple of minutes today to do the same thing to mine. We'll see how it rides maybe tomorrow:
