I have Road 6 Customs 10" apes and like them just fine. No need for any wire extensions or new cables.


Since this photo I relocated the fairing mirrors down about an inch. Not the perfect solution but good enough for state inspection.

Plus One.... I really like mine. I am using the stock mirrors which now work great. I wasn't looking for style, I was looking for "back" relief which I got from them. Best money I spent on the bike.

Be Safe JIM

Those look great. And no need for any extentions or cables. All stock? Nice. These also fit the stock risers?

Everything stock will work fine with no binding lockout to lockout. They fit the stock risers perfectly too. I was pleasantly surprised at how easy and quick the install went. And additionally, I didn't re-route the clutch cable either and have no issues with it whatsoever. I'm very pleased.
