I am an ape guy, and at least for me apes on a Springer need a good set of risers. Here's a set of (I think 12's) on 4 inch risers on my old Shovel.

Mini or bikini beach bars. Not sure, I bought the bike with them on. Actually I'd love to get rid of them and go back to stock but then the cables would be too long and that would mean $$ to change them out.

Thanks Jay! Fort Carson, eh? I'm just up the road in Monument. Maybe we'll cross paths one day!

Red - I would dig that, just to see the bike up close!

Mine is coming along. Should have it up and moving for the CVMA Bike show in Florence on the 2nd!

Thanks... yes, I like the lower riser look. There is an issue with clearance on the dash with the lower risers depending on the bottom width of bars.
