14in Monkey Bagger bars on a Street Glide
Any one using these? If so can you post pics? I have 12's on now, but since they are bent from the trailer damage from Sturgis, wanted to upgrade to 14's....
Anyone?
Thanks!

Thanks for the pictures, it's a long story but the short version is my buddy was passing a 18 wheeler and got caught in the wind between the truck and the trailer started to fishtail almost causing us to lose control and go off the road. Our trailer had 3 bikes in it and my bike was at the furthest point to the rear of the trailer. My buddies bike broke free and fell into mine causing mine to fall against the side of the trailer. Ugh it makes me sick.
On a lighter note, any issue using factory mirrors with the 14's? I have no issue with the 12's until I'm riding 2-up when I'm pushed forward makes using the mirrors a little tricky...

Yeah, it could have been worse. I am surprised you didn't get it fixed while in Sturgis 
I run 13" bars on my '07 and the fairing mounted mirrors are crap with that setup, the 12" bars on the '12 have mirrors mounted inverted from the perches and they work much better for me.
