Nice looking train! What brand bars did you go with, and how tall are you?

I'm looking to get Carlini gangster apes but can't decide what size I should get...

This is not my bike, but thought I would share these with you all...Not sure if they can even be called "apes", more like King Kong...

Those look sick, definately too tall for me though. I pulled the trigger on a set of 14" 1.50 Gangsters last night. Got the bra risers to go with it. They are chrome blems so I'm going to have them coated before I can put them on, but they don't make the risers in black for some reason so, I was going to have to wait anyway, even if I ordered black bars.

They should be here on Friday. I plan on marking them up ASAP so I can order my cables and wires.

Just found some new Carlini's on the website, at least I've never seen them before. I'm pretty sure I'm going to order a set of 16's in the next month.
