Default Finally got my Sick Saddle and Carlini Apes

I just got done putting my new Sick Saddle seat and 14"Carlini flying apes on and thought I would share a few pics of the finished for now anyway product.

The new seat is from Ed at Sick Saddles and is great looks well made and although I have not gotten to go for a ride with it yet it is real comfortable and his prices are good also mine is leather, w/memory foam and custom stiched and was under $300 shipped. If thinking of ordering from Ed it did take longer than he told me to get it but was worth the wait.

The bars are 14" Carlini flying apes and 1.25" diemond riser also from Carlini they are a little taller than what I was expecting (measure about 15.75" form top of bar at riser to top of bar at grips) they were really easy to wire internally also so that was a big plus since this was my first time internally wiring bars.

I used Magnum cables for the swap.

If going with Carlini some of there bars run a tall. I'm 5'11" and with the new seat the 14" put the bottom of my hands about 1" or so above my shoulers but I tend to not set up real straight most of the time if I set straight up the bottom of my hand is about level with the top of my shoulders. I was going to send them back and get the 12" but with the 14" Flying apes they have alot of pullback 12" and with them set were they are now if I put my T-Bag on the front of my sissybar I can use it for a backrest for long trips and I'm not sure if that would work with the 12" so I decided to keep the 14" as they are comfy and I really like the way they look also.
