Default Height - Factory 47 Signature vs. Paul Yaffe Monkey Bars

In a RG Forum thread about this subject, some stated, "In 14" tall bars the Yaffe are 1.5 inches taller than the factory 47."

Can anyone else confirm this to be accurate?

Yaffe Bars tend to run taller than others so the Yaffe Monkey Bars, for instance, measure 14" but are labeled as 12", whereas most other companies label a bar that measures 12" as 12".

Go to this link - https://baggernation.com/wp-content/...ooklet_WEB.pdf

Scroll down to page 13 and you will see pictures of every bar height actually on a Road Glide, this may help you decide.

Good luck and let us know what you decide to install.

All comparing both bars all day and talking to Factory 47, I decided to go with their Signature 14" chrome bars. Mark was really patient and helpful. I think I made the right decision. They look very similar to the 12" PYMB and are a 1/4" thicker.

The thicker bars are way easier to install, I do not care for how wide they are.
