Default HELP !! Which Handlebars for my Ultra !! Yaffe or Santee
I am moving from Wild One 575 handlebars to apes. I am trying to decide between the

Yafee 10" Monkey Bars



or the

Santee Bonanza Touring Bars



The price for the Santee is about half the Yafee ($399). But the Santee is a little higher than the Yafee. What to do??

Will you guys running apes help out??

Thanks,

Scott

I have the Yaffe bars, 12 inch though. I love them. The Santee bars are thin. I have seen one set that cracked, it was on a metric though. I love my Yaffe's.
