Thanks for the comments. As far as the pipes go they are not new. I put those on the day I bought her. It's funny you mention apes are illegal here in tx. I've seen lots of em round here. Of course loud pipes are supposedly illegal here too but never had any issues. My inspection sticker is up this month so I'll keep ya posted if they give me any hassle about the height.

haven't had the chance to go on a long ride with em yet. but the shape and angle of the bar seem to hold my hands and arms in just the right spot. much more natural for me than the stck heritage bars.
