Default RKC handlebar help-

I have an 05 RKC and im stuck between getting the 12 " outlaws from wild1 or the 12 in apes from wild1..

Anyone have any experience with the more narrow outlaws? I love the grip angle but I cant find any Kings with them on.

Id like to hear what you guys think is better outlaws or reg 12 inch apes.. Im also looking at the 12' burly narrow apes..

Pics would be great an many thanks in advance.

Not sure about the Outlaws, but next week I'm putting 16" Wild 1 WO509's on my '11 RKC. Can't wait!

I'll be sure to post pics & review after install.

Good luck with your decision.

What about the grip angle? Seems from the pictures that the grips are turned in alot ..Ever consider 0 angle for the grips? Thats what the outlaws have.

Def post pix

Make sure your RK nacelle will fit over the Outlawz. They are only 8" wide at the base.

Subscribed. I too was interested in the 14' Outlawz or the Apes.leaning towards the Apes due to greater pull back.

Ok if outlaws are out I saw the Burly Narrow apes look nice and the Carlini bars look pretty interesting too.. Any feedback or picks would be great guys..

I went with the Wild 1 16s. As stated earlier make sure the fit the nacelle if you go with the Outlaws.

Default outlaws

I didnt know there would be concerns with the narcelle and putlaws, I want a 12 inch ape but I want the grips to be almost straight, not a wheelbarrow type and id be cool, Anyone have exp with Carlini? Or Burly?
