Default Yaffe 12" monkey bars

just wondering if anybody that has the 12" yaffe monkey bars could give me a measurement of how far above the fairing these are. A friend is wanting to put some on, and by the pics I said I would do the 10" bars not the 12". There 12" look really tall.

My bike is in the parking lot, so I cannot measure until I am off, but it is several inches above.


The second photo has them pushed up close to the fairing.

Looking dead on, my 12" Monkey bars are about 3" above the fairing.

I'm 6' tall.......bars are just below shoulder height.......very comfortable!!

Yaffe bars are about 2" higher than advertised - so the 12 Yaffe bars are 14" tall - I have them on my SGS and the center of my grips come to about 2" above the fairing ....

I know you're inquiring on 12's, but here's a shot of 10's for comparison.

Why do you want Monkey Bars? Are you a monkey?
