Default finally 10" Wild One Apes on 09 Road King

Finally installed these bars on the bike, I dont have any pictures yet, but they will be posted. These bars are amazing and have a total custom look to them. I love the way they handle and feel, if there is any questions please feel free to ask, all stock cables were used, but the switch housing wire had to be extended.

I love these bars

Glad you like your bars though. I'm thinking about going with the black 12" apes next year on my Train if I can afford it along with some other powder coating on the front end.

515s
Put the same bars on my 08 RK last spring. Rolled back a little, no more neck pain.
However, along with extended switch wiring, I needed +2 clutch, +4 brake.

there are the 515, and they can be installed without any mods to the cables, but the clutch is kinda tight when you turn the bars full and i mean full right, but when do you really turn full right all that much. To get yourself into a set of these it is a great start. Then later on down the road you can extend the cables when you have the extra bank.

Default nice bars

I see you just posted your new pictures on your profile. Bars look awesome. I love the smaller apes think the big ones look strange. I have a 09 RKC and have been trying to decide what kind of bars to put on. I think the stock bars are way uncomfortable. I am 5'10 and the stock bars seem to be to low and to far of a reach. My upper back and shoulder area gets sore even when just riding around town. I am thinking the 10" apes would solve that problem. I am looking for a more laid back feel. That being said, do you think the 10" WO would fit what I am looking for.
