I ordered PY racing levers. Still waiting on them as well. They want your old levers as well. Thought that was odd when you are paying $150 for a set of levers. I was going to order his axle, I wonder how long I will have to want for that? Where is the best place to find a deal?

 

I would try Dr. V Twin, I feel after my recent dealings with them, their Customer Service is top notch! Ask them Eric. I got to look at those... as for the PY levers, that sounds very strange....

 

+1. That's exactly what I did. I wanted my hands near or just below the fairing top and from what I have read that is where the 10's are. I also just looked at a number of pictures that everyone has on the forum + not having to order any extra wires and said screw it--10's it is.

 

i think i will do the 10's but im thinking...if i dont try a few different combo's? i will always wonder how the others fit. i guess that also explains why i can never keep a girlfriend.lol

 

Just a heads up for you guys who oredered them........its gonna take you a good part of a weekend lol.....and i hope you dont have a short fuse because they will **** you off. I had to do some grinding on the inside of the bars...still had a few burs inside, so GOOD LUCK!

 

That is why spending the $280 to have mine installed was worth it.

 

Indeed.........why i thought they were a good idea is beyond me!

 

Where have you guys found the best deals on Yaffe parts? I want to get one of his axles.

 

i put the 14 inch yaffe bars on my bike and i can just see under my arms with stock mirrors i don't think i would be able to use stock mirrors if i went with 12 my dad has
13's regular apes on his electra glide and i would not be able to see under arms with his

 

Believe me, I know it looks cool, but I have 2 questions:
do you guys ride distance (100-500) miles? if so, how do they feel then?

How is the turning radius? Do you feel a loss of control in the parking lots? Is it really that bad?

The reason i asked these questions is because when I bought my fxr, i went straight to apes. i only went to 10-12 but they looked cool. My dad acted like he was going to kill himself riding it and i had no problems. I even rode it to GA from MD with the apes and i was just fine. Would this be any different on a bagger?

Do you feel any certain way about moving your hands above the protection of the fairing to the wide open air?

Im almost 28 and I think this looks cool as hell but i dont want to sacrifice comfort for looks and be dissapointed in the long run. 2oo is a little costly for bars, especially when i have to purchase new cables as well. Speaking of which, how much did new cables, if any, cost you guys.
