Does anyone know how the 10" yaffe monkey bars compare(as sticking above the fairing on a Street Glide) to the 13" cyclesmiths? Hard to tell from pictures but the monkey bars look just as tall.Anybody had experience with both for long rides?

Thanks

Can't compare Yaffies, never had them. I had 13" CS on my 05 EGC and rode from Houston to Daytona last year with no probs at all. Now I have 16" from HCC and leaveing next month for Daytona again and see no problems at all.

I think bagger nation has the best comparison shot of all the different sizes...you probably already have seen this but maybe not.
