I think you have THE perfect size apes for a Rocker in your sig pic micahpop! Very well proportioned. I also don't think people realize just how comfortable apes are. I have 12.5" Wild 1 Chubbys and they keep my hands just below shoulder height which is ideal for me. I've had a previous rotator cuff surgery and they couldn't be more comfortable. Just FYI....baby apes are usually 8.5" tall, mini apes are 10" tall and then it usually jumps to 12" or 12.5". I thought I may be going to tall when I ordered but I'm glad I stuck with my gut and got the 12.5"....Good Luck

What about a set of broom sticks? Drag bars that go straight across? BR makes a set with and without pull back.

Although I think apes have their place, I am partial to the drag bars. If you're bars pull back to far, my vote is going to a different drag bar. But that's just me....

By the way Joe, your scoot turned out great man. How you liking the Heartland? Was it worth the $$$? I have to say is was disappointed with the quality of their front fender when it arrived, it needed alot of clean up work and even though I had problems with Debrix, their fender was cleaned up alot better and would have taken alot less work to get ready for paint...
