I'm assuming the LA Chopper Twin Peak bars except the same handgrips that go on the stock HD bars???

Or do I have to sing the MO Money song.....

Yessir they do. The last set I installed for a friend used the stock grips. Went back on without a hitch.

These are the bushings you speak of correct?

Just ordered a set ($14). I've got my 12" Yaffe classic apes ($88) on the way as well. Now I just have to figure out what +6 clutch and brake cables I'm going with. I'm thinking the Magnum Shielding Sterling Chromite II ($153 with shipping) but not for sure. Since everyone says you can go 12s without having to extend cables I don't have to worry about that so I'll have $245 in the whole setup, providing I don't break anything in the process. Can't beat that!

Tip: I went with the magnum cables and thought I could just replace the upper brake lines, but they connectors did not match up to the stock splitter. Save time and get the lower brake lines too.

Thanks for the tip. Maybe I'll go a different route then.

I did a little searching and Phat Performance has discounted prices on the Magnum cables. Everything I need (clutch, upper and lower brake lines) with free shipping is $213 and in stock. I read in a couple threads where the stock upper cable length used by Magnum is shorter by a few inches vs the actual HD cable so I'm probably going to go with +8 just to be safe.

EDIT: Oh, they also have 3% off orders over $200 so that brings it down to $206 vs $266 direct from Magnum.
