Hello ladies and gents. Im thinking about putting either 13 or 15 in apes on my bike. Be honest how do you think it would look? I cant make up my mind. Thanks in advance.
Apes would totally alter the whole hotrod look you've got going on there. If you're after an easier reach, maybe higher wild1's with internal wiring or maybe drags with higher risers. Not that apes wouldn't look cool on your bike.. They certainly would that but it would be a drastic difference.. It would be a risk you might regret, unless you know you're very comfortable riding with apes.
That said, I'm going with 12" or 16" apes (if I get a wild hair) on the fatboy, hopefully a winter project this year if I can find the time and spare the cash.
