Default Springer Handlebar Question
Hi.
I have a 2000 FXSTS Springer with the OEM "buckhorn" handlebars. I am thinking about switching to mini-apes for a little better comfort. Has anyone ever installed the Wild One 9.5" mini-apes (or similar size)and if so do they work with the stock controls and cables? Any pics would be great also.
Thanks!

You will be very close on the 9.5's.....If memory serves I think you need 2 or 4+ to be safe...

I'll look at some past posts cause I know the numbers are listed
