Don't take it personal youngster, my opinion has nothing to do with wether I can ride a bike with a set of apes. I just do not care for the looks of them, so get over it..... and by the way I am 42 years old and can go a round with you any day at what ever you like, riding or what ever.........

Taken from the sticky Biker Lingo thread:
Apes/Ape Hangers - Handlebars that are very high, and which raise the rider's hands above the shoulders. If the hands ain’t above the shoulders, they ain’t real apes.

APES are so much fun to ride with...you just sit back in the cradle and say " Hell Yeah!!!!"....anybody who has apes knows just what I'm talking about.

I agree with you, don't like them at all on any Harley model. They take away from the looks of every bike I have seen them on,but again the mini apes look pretty good on a lot of models, just don't care for the tall ones.

Since your pushing 34 years old *edit* no personal attacks *edit*,you will more than likely fall over at slow speeds in a parking lot or trying to do a fast stop with those apes and beet me to the hip thing.
