I gave myself a fresh fishtail scar on Friday. They definitely will take out any ankles in a 20 foot radius!

great looking bike. i know what you mean about the bars. i'm doing a classic look on my 2006 flhri. but ive got 14 inch apes as well. they just feel right.

yours sure look like 16s to me though...

My Ride

I don't have a pic that will load, but here's a video of my bike (you probably have to cut and paste to your address bar). I tried to keep a classic old school look.

Ride safe.

Thanks for the new link, Hot. Interesting, he uses velcro to anchor them...wonder how well they hold up. Everybody here thinks you ought to buy a set and let us know how they work.

I don't see any room for improvement on my '04 Road King Classic. It just "has the look".

BTW, awesome bike! I've seen a few of your posts elsewhere on the forum - white is a classy color.
