Does anyone have a picture of a sweet glide with 16" vindikta apes? I am looking to put them on but don't know if I should get the 14s or 16s. Just won't to see how far over the fairing the 16s are. I cant make any measurements cause i am out at work. I am putting them on a 2014. Thanks in advance
How tall are you? Are those bars pushed all the way forward?
I'm 6'3" and 36" sleeves. they are all the way forward. Ideally I'd like them another half inch or so forward but that's the limitation of having a fairing in front of them
I'm looking for a set of bars as well. My dad & I just bought 2015 Street Glide Specials. We love the bikes. Only issue is the handlebars.
The photos is my dad on his bike.
We first went with the La Choppers Twin Peaks. They are awesome bars. They are just to far forward for us. My dad is 5'7 & I'm 5'8. We have average or maybe even just over average length arms. I don't think arm length is the problem. As you see them in the picture, these bars are adjusted as far back as they will go. When turned hard left there is 3/16" clearance between the bend in the bar and the fuel tank. The bars are centered in the bar clamp like they should be.
My question is, I know yours are set as far forward as you can get them, how much clearance do you have between the bar and the tank? Do you think we'd be able to get the bars pulled back a little bit?
Also, in the photo, his backrest is also adjusted as far forward as it will go. He's really only looking for maybe 2-3 more inches, just so his shoulders are able to sit square instead of reaching forward rounding out his shoulders.
