Default Fat Bobs with Apes

If you have them, can you post some pics please? I love the feel of apes, but I am just not sure how it will look on a fatbob. I know this thread has probably been done before, if that is the case, can someone send me the link?

Yours truly,
have a great summer,
Never change,

Here is my bike. This is with 1-1/4" risers and BRCustom bars that are essentially the same spec Rise,Pullback etc as HD Mini Apes.

NEW2BAG-great looking bike. Your seat would look super in that dark brown leather.

NEW2BAG - where'd you get the bags and tank console, or are they custom work? Very nice.

No reason apes wouldn't look good... With the wider trees, I would say apes look better on fatbobs than mid glide dynas. It boggles my mind though that HD would black out the lowers and not the trees.?. If I owned a Fatbob, coating the trees to match to lowers would be first on my list!

Nice touch with the "distressed" brown leather.
