Thanks! Still not done yet though. I am 5'10 and they are 1 1/4. The 1 1/2 were thick for my liking.
I'm 5'10" also how do the bars feel for you. Do you do any longer distance riding. Most I've done was a little over 1000 miles in 2 days. But In the summer I ride an hour to work as often as the weather permits. I try and get 100-150 mile ride in as often as possible. Easier said than done with a family. Anyhow I dont want to lose comfort while riding.
And other days I have to show the weather who's in charge

I like the fat boys in white. thwy look clean like that. Longest I've ridden due to having a family is about 200 miles in a day. Wasnt much but enjoyed it. It has made my bike way more comfortable man! Highly recommend getting 16's. My palms would hurt from leaning and my back would get sore as well from the stock bars. With the apes it is extremely comfortable. First thing I will do moving forward on all my bikes! You didn't ask about the hands going numb but that was my concern awhile back. Its a myth. Doesn't happen from the apes. Let me know of you plan on doing the ape install yourself. A friend of mine did them together for the first time and it was a process but wasn't hard. More than happy to help if you have questions.

alright thanks. If I have questions I'll msg you. Thanks for the replys.
This an old thread but I'll take a shot. Cruzomatic what size gangsters are they? I'm torn between 14 or 16 as well as flying vs gangster vs factory 47 vicla.
Here's a picture of my bike with 16 inch gangster apes. Its an 04 road king classic.
Nice lookin sled man.
I'm currently stuck in this situation where I can't decide between 14" and 16" Gangster Apes or Evil Apes for my 12 Softail Deluxe. I'm roughly 6' 220 lbs and I THINK 16's would be good but I don't want the full hunched over look.
18" Carlini Flying Apes on my HD Road King Classic I’m 6’1 and ever since I’ve installed these it’s helped me ride longer with perfect posture... I no longer get that lower back ache from slightly leaning over with stock bars
