Default got my Carlini's on

14 Gangster Apes 1.5 thick! High Roller risers. These are tall bars for 14. I was thinking I should have went with 16's but I am glad I did the 14's. I am 5'11. I only have 1 pic for now, as it is still at the dealer. I will post better pics this weekend when I pick it up. I am going to invert the mirrors also.

They look great!! I got the 16" 1.5" thick on my 2002 Softail Standard and they rock. If I could do it over I would get the 1.25" bars, just think for my taste they look better on my bike. If I had a Fatboy or Heritage 1.5" for sure. Carlini Gangster Apes look great from the side, the bars line up great with the legs, not like other bars that you have to push fowards to be comfortable. Pic on my avatar is my other '02 Softail, that one went down this past summer and is now totally different, will post pics down the road.

Here are a couple of pics. The blue bike is the one I picked up this past summer, she's almost done. the black one is myold blue bike that I had to lay down this past summer due to some a hole cutting me off.

Nice, glock! Those bars with the same specs are currently my first choice. Definitely post some pics after you pick it up.

Carlini's are good stuff. Love my Flyin's apes. The gangster apes curve the other way.
