RE: Any apes with batwing??
Hey MACK - Not sure I follow you on this one. How does putting your hands higher in the air actually raise the center of gravity on a bike? Not being a smarta$$, just trying to understand.

Some people do not care about the inherent dangers of raising the center of gravity and are willing to sign waiver of liability statements to get what they want.

Not for me...I ride in the winter and need the wind protection to keep the hands warm. Would look strange also, but to each his own.

Got 13 Cyclesmiths on my SG. At 6'3", I would get a catch in my upper back sometimes while ridding and having to reach down to the bars. Now my hands are just below shoulder level and it is nice.
