they look well made, but 395 bucks is a bit much for me and it take 4 to 6 weeks to be made...phew!

All the answers to your questions are on Carlinis site. Just find out the diameter of your stock bars and they'll have bars in that size for your oem risers. My guess is your 1.25 stepped down to a 1". If that's the case they have the Menace apes you want in stock ready to go. And they're knurled.

i'd think if you wrapped a little bit of 300 grade sand paper or some type of grip tape on the clamping section

Get their risers with the built inset screws. They will not move.

I agree with hogpro. I had some aftermarket apes on my Nightster using them with the stock risers. Even though they were knurled they would still move.

I have 16" Carlini gangsters on my deluxe and used their risers with set screw and they ain't moving at all.
