Are you happy with them or do you wish you went bigger?

I am in this same debate... I can't choose. I am leaning towards the pist apes only because less people may be running them as they are new

Im going with pist apes I think myself. Do they come in 1.50 or just 1.25? And do they need the carlini risers?

It looks like they only come in the 1.25 inch. No any risers for a 1 inch bar would work.

The stick risers on the newer wide glides are for 1.25 inch bars plus they are four inches tall and wouldn't look good IMO. Not sure what kind of bike you have.

Default Pist Apes
I have the 17" pist apes on my '07 SB. I love them, and wouldn't change a thing. Actually thats not true... we have a RCMP douche bag in the city I live in who might pinch me on the height.. but I don't give a F. I got stock 1" risers, so they sit at 18" high. Might be a little to tall, but it prevents me from slouching. (sp?)
