Good looking bike! those 14's look high, i swore they were 16's.
I'm looking into apes probably by the end of the year (got a birthday in November and Christmas in December, so hopefully something pops up)
I've got a question about installation....I'm weighing things out as far as whats most economical. I know the Hill County Customs come pre-wired for easy install. I still don't trust myself to do the install, that's a pretty important thing to goof up. So I wonder, what's the most efficient way to save labor hours.
I hear full install if i buy just apes is about $500. I can get the bars pre-wired for about $400 or get the bars, chrome controls, cables prewired and connectors at the end for closer to $600. What's best? If i got them pre-wired with connecters and everything is it simple just plug-n-play i could do myself, or any other tricky parts to installing?
Does this make sense? Basically, is the extra couple hundred to have everything set up already and do it myself a better deal than just having the dealer do the whole thing in the first place? Does it come out about the same in the end?
