Put my "road runner" Deuce in partial retirement a couple of years ago when I bought a Road Giide, never bonded with the Glide, sold it a few days ago and dusted the Deuce back off and decided I wanted to clean up the front end a bit.
Here is the deal, thinking hard on adding a set of Flanders mini apes, 10" and putting them onto the stock Deuce risers, hide the wires in the bars, moving the turn signals down onto the fork and replacing the cables with braided lines.
Any comments? Pit falls I should be aware of?

I thought about the same thing. I wanted to be up and back a little. I saw one with mini apes and thought it came too far back to look good from a side view(in line so to speak) I ended up with Chubby 507 drag bars and being 6'3" I am in the perfect riding position (for me).To eachtheir own
I think the 10" are pretty mild, I have the HD bars with the extra rise I put in it back in 02. You bike looks great, by the way. I have a link to mine as it sits now.
