Here are my 12.5" Chubby's

 

Has anyone heard of Buffalo. I went to Hannum's Harley Davidson and they ordered me those to try out and pre fit on my bike. Are they junk??

 

Im on my third set of chubbys,Ive had nothing but great luck with them. 16's on a heritage,16's on a Fatboy,13's on my Electra Glide.I think their 13's. They come slightly above the fairing.A real neck saver.

 

I had an 06 Street Glide and hated the stock bars. I bought 10" Chubbys, hated them. Then went with 12" Cyclesmiths (actually measured 13"). The knurling on the bars were shallow and flat which allowed the bars to slip out of position if I hit a hard bump. I retorqued to spec but they wouldn't stay put. Then I went with 14" Chubby Wild One's. The knurling was pointed and super sharp. I'm 5'9" and ride a fairly low seat. Those bars put my hands just below shoulder height. I really liked that set up and they stayed put. No numbness or unusual discomfort. Long haul or short, they were great. I just sold that bike with 83,000 miles on it.

Now I have a 2012 CVO RoadGlide Custom in Metallic Maple and Black. I just finished blacking it out a little more and am considering apes again. The stock height tends to cramp my neck muscles after only an hour or so of riding. I'm now considering the 14" Chubby Wild One's and possibly even the 16's. No Fear, life is too short to get old wondering what you may have missed. But you gotta pay to play.

 

I have 16 inch wild ones. Good price,great ride. I love them and they look awesome. 06 FLHRCI.

 

Wild 1 16s on mine. Love them. Best MOD to date for comfort.

 

I went with the 16" Carlini Gangster apes. Love them, they are night & day different. Extremly comfortable! Probably the best mod I've done to date!!

 

Big, Can I ask your height? I'm 5-9" and easily handle 14's. But love the looks of 16's. I'm in Cali so we can be 6" above the shoulders here. Just for grins I posted an ape hanger info web site (see below). I've ridden with 16's and liked them, but it was only for a 30 minute bike swap. Most people stop for fuel every 100-125 miles so if you can do that without discomfort I figure you've got a winner.

I think these ( Carlini Gangster) are the best looking bars on a RK.

 

Me too!!!
