Default Monkey Bars/ Meathooks

I think i have decided to go with either the monkey bars or the meathooks on my 09 RG i have done some searching and found a couple of pics. For those of you that have these do you like them and what mods did you have to do to get them to fit, ie.. cables wires etc... Thanks again for everyones help. OOO and if you have pics of your RG with either of these please post em!

I am having PYO Monkey Bars installed on my 09 cvo road glide. I was told that the stock cables will work. He is installing the bars tomorrow, so I don't have any pictures yet.

The Cables will have to be Replaced depending on the height of the Bars, I had 12" Meat Hooks and had to use +4 now I have 14" and I had to use +6. I Love my Hooks

I just ordered some 14 " Bro' bars from Trask performance. Before, I talked to Bagger Nation, and their bars for the RG also come in black (the website just states chrome). Just wanted to let you know about the black option...

I have PYO Monkee bars in black powder coat. Much more comfortable than stock. I had to extend the wiring but the stock cables fit perfect. Sorry for the poor pics.
