Default Put my apes on today

I wanted to give a shout out to the guys at Hill Country Custom Cycles for putting together my 16" Wild 1 Chubbys package. Excellent customer service and shipping was quick. I installed them yesterday along with a new set of polyurethane bushings. I'm going to replace those H-D mirrors next week with some Arlen Ness flame mirrors. These apes to me are much more comfortable than the H-D street slammer bars I had. I'm 5'8 and they come up just a tad above my shoulders. Before and after pics. Apologies for the bad pics. Took these with my iPhone.

Looks good....I like it with the high sissy bar in the back. Gives it overall balance. I am not into that look where the back end just drops off into nothing and the apes sit real high. Yours looks balanced to me. Nice work.

Looks good, that is what I am looking at doing with mine as well, but I am facing some problems with my speedo and tach being mounted to my current bars.
BTW, on your cables and brake lines what overage length did you end up having to get?
