Getting pissy waiting for my apes, installed bikini bars...
I recently ordered a set of Paughco 14 inch fat apes along with cables. UPS and the post office has been dragging there heels for a week now, so as I wait for my parts to arrive I decided to install a set of chrome 32 inch bikini bars to help style up the bike. I will certainly install the Paughco apes once they get there, but for now these bars seem like a nice change from the stockers. I just wanted to post up a couple pics for anyone who might be interested in seeing bikini bars on a Fatboy. 'Cause they won't be there for long..... I hope. Not because they don't look nice or ride well, I just prefer apes.

Thanks guys. I have had those bars on another bike and I like them. But machinistmate, I got to give apes a try. Never had a Fatboy, but most of my favorites have apes. But who knows, right.......

I don't know, but they "may" be from a Springer Classic. They have the wide Springer knurling, not the standard 3 1/2. I had them on my Springer Dyna and parked next to a ton of Springer Classics that seemed to have similar bars. I would give them to you if you want them, but just be warned, they are NOT in pristine condition. Not rusty of bent, just old. Let me know if you want them.
