Default Help my bagger get apes!!
I have a 05 FLTRI/Road Glide. Just finishing lowering it, powder coating ALL the Chrome to gloss black and repainting all my plastics, fairing and bags gloss black. Have added some Chrome acc to accent the beautiful black it now sits in. I want to finish the bars out with some shorter style apes, have them powdered then add in some chrome controls, grips and levers. I just cant seem to find the right bars.
Can anyone send some input and maybe some pics. Even a web site would be great. I have looked alot and just not set yet.

HYPO

Well, I put 10" mini apes on my RG and thought they looked and felt great. Not too high, but enough to give it a good look and very good feel. Pic attached. Bars are Wild One Chubby apes.
