Good deal...Loner makes nice stuff. I think 14" is as high as I'd go...I think the stockers are 10.5", if I'm not mistaken.

Yeah, I wish I could as well. But I think they may be a bit tall. I'd need 14 inches at maximum.. 16's would definitely put me over the shoulder.

It wouldn't be if I didn't have cops here that are ********* and pull over any motorcycle for ANY bit of wrong doing and treat you like your a moron. But hey, whatever, right?

I'd be all over it if it wasn't for that!

the gimp 16's are low like 14" apes... the height difference is only a few inches over stock mini apes... Surprised me that they were not taller. With my speedo and chrome wide glide front they just do not work on my bike the way they look on the streetbob's I've seen with them. I think it is mostly the speedo that takes away from the styling of the bars.

Well then in that case!!!!

Hmmmmmmmmm... now you've got me thinking!

I would need to re-do my cables though. Whats the cheapest most reliable cables to get? I'd need clutch, throttle, idle and new front brake line, right? How hard is it to do this? I'm not sure about doing something like that.
