Default Anyone put Yaffe classic bagger apes on

Doing some research for my son, he wants to put 12' apes on his Ultra Limited, trying to get an idea of what they look like on a bike and what over cables might be needed to install them.

I have them on my 09 SG and all I had to replace was the clutch cable. No wire lengthening or anything.

I put 10" on my Limited, 4" over for clutch, extended wires for internal wiring, pain in the a$$ to do but look nice.

all my customers well 95% of them all have nothing bad to say I use them for 2 of my bikes and I get a discount for using them just my opinion there the better of the group.

Kinda bias by my customers response and mine as well.
