I was in Orlando a couple weeks ago, and saw 2 black RKS at Ace Cafe.

One had the Carlini Gangsta Apes, and the other had the 47 Malo bars.


I did not like the look of the Malo bar on that bike, but the Carlini's looked great.


There... messed you up even more.

The really cool part was I did not need to buy cables, plenty of slack, made it work. Did need to extend a couple wires.


Perfect amount of height and width for me , I am 6,2. In Cali we love to split lanes! :-)



Done a few long day rides (400 mi+) the bars are comfy, pullback suits me well. I may push em forward if my ego needs a boost :-)
Love the bars chilidipper. not sure I could hang with them since I am only 5' 9" - but maybe! I'm looking for different bars. Was thinking, btw, that looked like Cali from the eucalyptus tree in the background. Grew up in socal and miss it on cold *** days like today in wisconsin....

chilidipper, I looked over you past posts for the make and model of the 14" bars on your RKS. Would you be willing to share that information?

Thanks,
bsquared72

@bbissell

final pics needed asap! Different angles.



that looks incredible and liking the 12's

I'm either moving forward with these or holding out for the new round factory 47 bars.. I've waited to get the look i want right the first time. Finally 2 perfect options for me. And these 12's may just sway me after seeing final pics
