Carlini- Flying Ape's VS Gangster Ape's?
I haven't seen a thread comparing both of these bars, so I would like some feedback from those who have either or, but preferably those whom have had experience with both. I have narrowed my handlebar selection down to these two sets of bars, and in either 14" or 16". These are the last two decisions, I need to make. I have sat on bikes locally with the gangster ape's but no one I know has the flying ape's. If it helps anyone recommending which size bars between the 14's or the 16's I am 5'10-5'11, 235 pounds, 32" inseam, and my wingspan is 75".
Thanks

to run 1.5's you gotta buy new riser mount for the thick bars.
then the cover for your risers has to be from 07 or earlier.
i bought the earlier cover and it was still a tight fit over the new risers and bars but it worked. i didnt notice til after my purchase of the bars that the 1.5's are wider then the 1.25. the 1.25 would of been more like my chubbys that i had on before

I got my riser clamp from carlini, I have heard you need the older style cover tho.
