RE: Heritage with Apes. Should I?
I've seen them... think the 12s or 14s would be real nice on that scoot.... though it does look classy the way it is...

RE: Heritage with Apes. Should I?
I've also been thinking about 12.5" but I'm just not too crazy about the wild1 chubbies, They just seem too wide at the base, I'm thinking about going with the Carlini Flyin apes or the Gangster apes.

RE: Heritage with Apes. Should I?
any ideas on what bars are not so wide at the base, \\; The Carlini's are expensive as hell. \\; I can get a set of Blems for $100.00 less but theyre still expensive. \\; The wild1's are nice but just too wide at the base.

I say go for it - 14's should be nice - I don't think the Wild 1's are that bad at the base...had a set prior to my current set which are LA Choppers. \\; You may want to check them out -

RE: Heritage with Apes. Should I?
One issue that I do have though, \\; Is that my risers are 1 1/4" risers, \\; Most companies make the 1 1/4" bars that are 1" diameter at the risers. \\; Is there some kind of adapter to get to adapt them to my 1 1/4" risers. \\; I have the screamin eagle fat boy bars now with the tach built into the riser clamp.

As I am sure you already know, you could always go back to the original riser that came with the Heritage. That is 1 inch. I picked up a heritage riser off ebay for 15 bucks when I went with apes. I have Wild One's 12.5. As a poster said before, they are high enough to get noticed, but feel great.
