I have buffalo 16 inch apes and love them. They have great fit and finish and I ran the wires in the bars. They look meen. They are so comfortable, I could not imagine riding with out apes again.

I put CycleSmith's 13's on mine. They are 1 1/4" and made for the throttle-by-wire controls. They may have something for your 04, but not sure.

Sounds like the ape business is full of good guys. I can't say enough about Johnny Vaughn (www. johnnyvaughn .com) at HD Bike Parts. Great guy and he'll getcha exactly what you need for your bike.

I'm 6'4" and went with 16" chubby's and they're perfect for me. Shoulder height and very comfortable. (pictures in my gallery)

Try to find someone with apes that'll letcha sit on their bike to measure yourself up to make the shopping easier. Good luck!

I have 16" L.A.Choppers which have less pull back and are a little wider than the wild1's.
