Looks tight 24v. How are you liking those bars? I can't decide wether I want those in 14's or 16's.

I don't have the part number right now, but Harley has an ape kit specifically for the Breakout. It includes new mini-apes, risers, and speedo mount, which keeps the speedo in the same position as on the stock bars.

I just ordered this kit from the local dealership and it's a very good price compared to putting other bars on. It comes with everything you need except for the cables, which are a separate order. It's the same kit as seen in this video:

I love the bars. For me 16" would have been too high. I'm about 5'9" or 5'10". At first I thought these were a little too high, but after adjusting them a little, they are perfect.

Yeah, that riser is the CVO riser which I have on my bike. That kit is the riser and a mini ape. I just don't like the curvy apes, I prefer the squared edges on this bike. Also, those apes are a little shorter than most run.

Sweet, do yours run about 15 inches? I've heard the flying apes run about an inch taller than advertised...wasn't sure if it's the same for pist apes
