Default Apes for a Wideglide?

Got any Head-on front view shots of you're Wide Glides with
Wild 1's, HCC, or Santees apes?

I'm leaning toward 14" but can't find front view head-on shots ona Wide Glide to see if the base of the bars are too wide for my tripple trees.

Dont have any pics but if you do a search on EBay for "road 6 custom bars" you will see some that just scream Wide Glide. Those are the ones I'm going to get.

Nice. That's how I imagine a Wide Glide, in my mind's eye.

Unless they have changed them road 6 are too narrow at the base for a wide glide. I bought a used set and never finished mounting them. Looked like crap to me.

You should check the 'blacked out bikes' thread on the Softail section, there are a few Night Trains with some really great apes. I think the WG has a lot in common in the front part with the FXST/B/C bikes.

Hey Mike, Those apes look great. Do you have any photos from the front view head on?
