Looking for 12inch meathook apes. Really dont wanna spend 400 for a set of yaffes. Where can i get them cheaper with as good or better build quality? Any other brands as good that are cheaper?
i got my bike tore down in my garage waiting on a set. I took it apart to determine what all i need and see how hard it was gonna be since its cold outside. I think i can handle this job just fine. Now just need to find the bars i want.

 

I would look at Wild 1s

KST bars are good quality and very reasonably priced. I have the black 12" and love them.

 

Better than Yaffe IMHO

 

+1..I paid $250 polished and they look sick..14" Might be selling them. Left them on the trade and dealer is suppose to take them off or keep them. Will know next week if interested.

 

KST Custom 14" Renegades

 

I won't say one is worse or better . Just make sure when you set them do it for long distance riding and if you use a back rest make sure you set them so you can lean back
and reach everything easy and relaxed.

 

I did my own bars went with Wild 1s Wo502 which are 12.5" I used the Harley wire kit #69200034. Even though it says Softail models it will still work and the kit was plug and play, no splicing and all wires were same color code.

 

+1 on Wild 1’s! I bought their 12.5” apes for a 2008 SG. Transferred them to my 2014 SG and now they’re going on my 2018 SGS! Best bike investment I’ve ever made. Gives the bike a lighter feeling in the front end - almost like going to power steering! 12-14” - you can’t go wrong!

 

I have the 10” chrome Meathook apes on my Limited. Installed them myself after watching a couple of YouTube videos, not hard if you take your time. No extensions needed for anything. Bought mine off of Amazon for a little over “half” of what Monkey bars cost.

These bars are quality made and the chrome is flawless. I would buy them again. I’ve seen these for sale on eBay too.
