RE: Another bagger gone ape

Nice look. I am 6'1", and have 18" apes on my rk custom. I freakin' love them. I sure hope the height of your bars works for you... I will lay good money that you are going to wish you had gone with 16". Either way, though, the bars look great... you will enjoy them.

Going ape is the only way, have 13's on my road king and is awesome having your hands in the air.

Thanks everyone for all the comments.I probly should have gone with the 16",but not going to drop another 450 right now.These are so much of an improvement,I can only wander how the 16's would be.Being able to turn without hitting my knee's with the bars is priceless.

I have 13" Cyclesmiths, wouldn't go back to standard bars. I"m 5'10", 33 " arm length. I adjusted the bars about 3" from inner fairing. There great for long rides

RE: Another bagger gone ape

Hardav23,
I love the look of ape hangers. I wondered about how they'd look on a Roadie. Yours rocks! I will be puttin em on mine now. Did you install yours? Do the cables come in specific lengths to match the height of the bars?
Thanks.
Joe
