Gangster apes or Flying apes, what do you think? I like both.

They will be 1.5" and they will be black.

Do you have any pictures to post, I'm trying to decide myself on either gangster, evil or standard apes for my 2006 dyna Lowrider, I'm not sure to the pull back and how this will effect comfort, at one time i owned a 95 wide glide and liked the positioning to were I sat. Thanks in advance.

Edit: Scratch all that, Carlini just called and im now getting 1.5" dia 16" gangster apes, what the hell, just going to do it, if i bolt them on and step back and look at them and dont like them i will just sell them and try something else.
Now i know i will have to extend everything.
so how do you like the 16" and if you can please send some pic to dnethook@yahoo.com I dont know what to get flying/gangster 14 or 16 or evn the color but I want Carlini on my RD King
