Default Yaffe 10" Monkey Bars

I have read thread upon thread about installation on these bars. One of my biggest questions is for the vertically challenged rider. I'm 5'7" and have seen a lot of post about guys being 5'8" and above and how the bars are positioned perfect. I'm wanting to put them on a 2007 SG and the stock bars are just a hair to far forward to me. I would like to know who on this site thinks the 10" Yaffe MB's are more comfortable compared to stock? Are the bars positioned more forward than stock or can they come back some? Also are there any issues with installing the bars and having cruise control? Any input would b appreciated.

im 5'7" with w0578 wild1 10" chubbys and the are 100% better thn stock. ive read that the wild1's are taller than other brands so they would fit like yaffe 12". with the MB's dragging the wires through be careful pulling over the sharp bend. tbw green connector is an issue to be careful of.

lepera seat in this pic which drops me just over 1" from stock

I have the Yaffie 10 inch MMB's and stand 6 foot. My hands are just above the speaker pods. Really help with my lower back and neck pain. Would not ever ride without them again.

Be Safe, JIM
