I've seen it a few times, using a ness fairing. At first i thought no way, but it actually looks pretty good. Go for it

I've been wondering the same thing. I was originally planning to replace the apes on my street bob (I bought it with 'em installed), with something more like high drag bars and an arlen ness fairing (more or less the same setup sone of the SOA guys have). But then I got to like my apes way too much to lose 'em.

I'm trying to visualize the combo - probably with carlini gangster or flying' apes - and I just can't decide how it'll look.

I tell 'ya, I'm an ape hanger convert. They look and feel great.

Seems a bit of an odd combination to me.

Each to their own though.

I thought it would look gayer than Oprah going down on Rosie until I saw 07Bobber's bike and someone elses I forget.

i just posted a pic for this exact question this morning. wasn't it here? I'm having deja vu.

I've got 10" biltwell apes and ness 1/4 fairing. i was a little worried about how it would look, but totally looks fine. not weird at all.
