Default Apes for a bagger

I was looking for a set of apes for my new Road Glide, any good suggestions? Seen alot of them on the web, but just can't make up my mind.

Wild 1 Chubby apes are good bars. Most bars are 1" dia. These are 1 1/4" and give you plenty of room to squeeze in all that wiring.Good quality,also.

I agree, I just put wild 1 - 12.5 mini apes on my street glide. Never had mini apes before but these are comfortable.

I have Monkey Bars on my Street Glide. I am 5'7 and I have the 12 inch bars. I couldn't be happier with these bars. No nuck/shoulder pain. I am even more confident with the bike with the way it handles. I nnever expected that. And they loook killer.
