Cheapest I could find them, plus free shipping. They also have the baffled ones for the same price.

Got the same set-up. I was looking at BR's Swinger bars. What was the deciding factor in deciding on 16's or 18's? Also, I have the baffled longtails and wish I had gone w/ non-baffled. Have you seen a noticeable difference in power?

Apes haven't been delivered yet. I think they're due sometime this week. If I get time I'll install them this weekend. I want to wait to do the air when I get my rotors and pulley, but if they don't show up soon I'm not sure I'll wait.

If my measuring was correct, they should come to just above my shoulders, and I measured a couple of times.

Haven't ridden it enough to get a sense of power difference, but I'll be riding to work the next couple days and putting on a few more miles.
