Must agree. I'm no apes fan. But, hey, it's your ride - modify it the way that suits you. That's the beauty of all the choices we have.

Have fun with 'em and ride safe.

I'm not an apes fan either when it comes to baggers. They look awkward.

I do have to ask though, honestly, how does the bike handle with those things? I would imagine they are fine going in a straight line on the highway, but low speed manuevering or even emergency evaisive maneuvers?
