I put mini-apes off a 2002 Wide Glide on my Night Train, and they're great. No hands falling asleep on long rides, and I'm ina comfortable riding position... MUCH better than the stock drag bars. Plus, I think they look awesome!

Cheers!

I put 8" risers on mine with drag bars.If I wanted some pullback the street slammers are cool but there are so many aftermarket bar companies I would definetly shop around for a better price on these kind of bars.

Hey VROD,

How much farther does the street slammers pull it back, does it feel like a more natural riding position?

Thank you

Do you think you could measure how much farther or closer it is to you from the stock bars. No Harley dealership around here has them and wont get them unless I buy them...
