Very nice. I am studying all the ape threads in hopes of finding a set I like for my bike, and yours definitely look sweet.

I love these things!!! With the stock bars, I was leaning forward, and my elbows were locked out sometimes..... Same with my beach bars, they didn't have enough pullback..... With these, my elbows are slightly bent, and I can ride all day in comfort

And as someone else mentioned, the bars compliment the crash bars well
