Default INFO AND PICS REQUESTED FOR 13" APES PLEASE!

I have done a few searches hoping to get the information I need, but have only found one really good thread.
&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;
I was hoping those of you who have done the 13” ape change on your bikes might be kind enough to post a picture and what style bars they are.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; I am also interested in what cables and sizes I will need to do the changeover.
&nbsp\\;
Info on the Fairing models only - I have an Electraglide Classic.
&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;
If you have done this change, what are the results?&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; Are you happy?&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; Should have gone bigger?&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;
&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;
I am 5’11” and get some pain at the base of my neck / upper back on long rides.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; I run a stock ROAD GLIDE seat which sets me back a little farther and a little lower than the stock EGC Seat.
&nbsp\\;\\\\\\;
Thanks - Al

I did the Cyclesmith black 13" on my Street Glide. I also had prolems with my back, so I went with those apes to cure it. Its helped. The cables I went with are +6. The wiring u do not need to extend, they will fit. Good luck!

Just installed the 13 in apes on my streetglide. I havent been able to really ride it yet due to the weather but my short ride was great. I was also experiencing pains in the center of my back after a long ride and these bars put my arms straight which should help.
