I dont want to steal the thread from you moto, but i do have a question. I'm 5'11" and ride an 08 night train. I want carlini gangster apes for my bike but dont want wicked tall apes. i dont want my hands to be above my shoulders. Anyone know if 14 inch apes with i think an 1.5 inch riser would put them on me?

I called Carlini back and went ahead and ordered their 1 piece billet riser.
Are those 18" rise bars on your bike?

I don't really care for the sissy bar with the solo seat. Just kinda seems out of place to me. But, if you are happy with it then that's all that matters.

Don't really have an opinion on apes though.

I've got Corbin Gunfighter as well for 2 up......I prefer the solo when riding alone as it gives me a bit more leg room.
