longest i've gone with 18" apes on my bob is 6 hours at a time. By then I was in Daytona so it was fine with me.

I went with the Psycho Chubby apes though because I liked the beefier look on them. They're 1 1/4" diameter
Slap me if I'm wrong, but ain't the 1 1/4 what comes standard on the new wide glides. I been thinking real hard about some apes over the factory apes. The dealer has been quoting me high labor prices and scared me off. I wanted the cables to not stick way out either.
A person can normally look at how high they sit on the seat and look at shoulder height for what size apes fit them the best. But if you git used to a set of apes its hard to go to anything else and be happy.
Oh yea who sells Psycho Chubbies. And did you look at braded cables . Did you git yer cables from the same place.
When I switched over I had to get new cables and extend all the wires. I also went with internal wiring and throttle when I did it.

Not sure what comes standard on the new WG's. I know the stock Bob bars were 1" diameter

Only cable I have coming off of them is a braided front brake line.

this is what they looked like when I first put them on with a stock front end.



This is them with the new front end
