Jakeylee, the bars are Carlini Menace Ape 1.50” at 12”; throttle By Wire with Dual Flat Spot. With the 12in height did not have to use extension wires and the dual flat spot near the grips allows for factory clutch and brake. They look better in person due to the 1.5in thick and curve of the menace design.

The Denali have a killer price tag as well so prepare your wallet. The headlamp is a JW Speaker, also expensive but I have no problem paying for quality lights that let you see and be seen. I've tried the Sunpies and they dont hold a candle to what the others are trying to copy.

I recommend taking an RKS for a spin before committing to a purchase.

Infantry0302- you made those fishtails work to perfection...great job! I've always hated the look, but no longer! Sweet ride. I'm sure you're enjoying it. I know I LOVE my '19 Special. I'll own it forever.
