I have the fat drag bars on my street bob, but if i went back to apes it would have to be these!

WO504 on SB
Thanks for putting these pics up. While I love the way apes look, they don't work for me. I have a set of black WO504's waiting to be installed on my '07 SB as soon as I get a few more parts in that I've ordered.

Well I just installed the exhaust and performed the 1000 miles service on my 2010 Street Bob. I want to install black handle bars and was orginally leaning towards a drag bar set-up but my buddy said the bike is a bobber and it needs ape's. Iam up in the air with what I want on it. I was looking at a set up with 14in apes or even a 16in apes but that might be to much. The bike comes stock with 12in mini apes and iam 5' 11"
What is everyones opinon on drag vs apes on a street bob. I know it is all on what I want to do but I just want to see what others think?
Thanks

The mini-apes also look good... I wouldn't go taller.

I just think if i had two street bobs one with ape's and one with drag bars right next to each other I could then see what I like better. As for right now the stock 12in mini apes are fine while riding. Iam not sure if I went any taller it will effect my shoulders, arms,etc. I do know that if I went with drags it will feel very good and I won't have any problems with them. It just sucks that black 1 1/4 apes are so much money and then if I go with drag bars i'll have to change the upper triple clamp thanks to that intergrated riser...thanks harley
