Much better. I really like the position they put my arms in and they are much easier on my back.

The bars on paulyaffeoriginals.com for $199 are for bobbers. Yeah I saw the Roland Sands bars G-Money and while they are nice looking bars, I love I mean LOVE the PYO bars! Thats the beauty of so many products different strokes for different folks. I bet the RSD bars aren't gonna be cheap either.

Ok for those of you that have done the bagger bars ie monkey bars, cyclesmiths, rsd, etc... What length throttle and clutch cables do you need? I am assuming that NAMZ wire extensions is the way to go for controls?

I got the PYO Monkey bars and to just make it easy also got their extension kit... one stop shopping anyway.. They fit nice and were not that hard to install. Got about 2 miles on them because the snow keeps coming.. Here are some pics, they do look nice.

With 13" Cyclesmiths you need +6 on the clutch cable, brake line, and I would think the throttle cable too. I have TBW so i didn't need extended throttle cables. With the 13" bars you do not have to extend the control wires, just relocate them.

So the factory wires for the hand control's are long enough? Even to internally wire? I know that they offer the extension kit for the bars from Bagger Nation but I was pricing the cables from a buddy to try and save some money.

I don't know about running the wires externally, but internally anything over 13" bars you will have to extend the wires.

I ordered mine direct from PYO. Nice quality but for 375 I expect that. I was disappointed that they charged me 47 for UPS ground shipping and that was not told to me, just charged and included a bill in the package. Could not have cost even 20 buck to ship. I guess I would have bought them even if they were 400 with 20 to ship but sneaking in high shipping cost and not disclosing it to the customer is not good business.
