Default Mini ape questions
Does anyone have pictures of their softail with 10"-12" mini apes? Looking to put some on my deuce. What do you guys think? How's the rake in a deuce compared to other softails?

Default 10" Mini Apes-Wild 1 Chubby








Not sure if this helps you, 10" Wild 1 Chubby Mini Apes with 1" Risers....I sat on a street bob to get a feel for the height. I have zero complaints on long rides, very comfortable!

Apparently the rake on the Deuce is the same as the Nightrain, Standard etc 32% except the 2001 which is 34 and 2004 which is 33 the extra % on those two years is in the yokes/ tree's, from what I've read, not a lot in it either way.

Strange because it almost looks like it has more rake than the rest.. I do agree that deuce and night train have the same rake.
