2010 LO (ape question)
I've been searching threw all the past threads and Im still confused. So Im posting what im looking for and maybe you guys and girls can help.
Im looking for black apes for my lo, but confused on what brand and size I should go with.
-Im 5'7 and I dont know if I should go with 10's or 12's..
-Wild1 bars look nice but what else is out there?
-I want a mean look but dont like apes that have the pull back like the huggers bars
-How much am I looking at to get this mod done.
Any pics would be a great help.....
Thanks
Rob

Rob, there are numerous brands available. Check out Carlini's. That is what I run, I had Wild 1's before that. I am 5'9" and run 16"'s so I think 12"'s would be fine for you. When you decide what you want give me a shout and I can get you most everything you need at discounted forum pricing. Email me at DREW@DRVTWIN.COM

12's will probably be perfect for you, especially if you go with a C&C seat or something that lowers you a bit. I know you don't plan on keeping that stock seat now, I don't know anyone that can take that thing after 50 miles!

Carlini does make an awsome bar Nubs. Dr. VTwin knows his stuff. As far as the height goes dont try and guage it by how tall you are, sit on the bike and pull some measurments. I went as far as to make a mock set with PVC just to try everything. I got lucky at a local shop that had different sizes of physco chubbies and I sat on the bike while they held them on the front of the bike. Its all about what u want on this deal. As far as the black goes I've seen powder coated and black chrome. Both look good imo. Good luck.
