All that being said: If I owned an RK I'm sure I would own Carlini's Evil Apes. Love'em!

yeah, www.torchind.com. owner's name is justin, give him a call
Too bad they looked terrible in the installed images. Looks like they require way too much pullback. These would look great (and ironically be a bit of a Carlini look) if they could be mounted more straight up and down.

I read this a little differently the first time around. (or maybe brushed over it) What do you mean you are trying to find out why people go Carlini? I think the answer is quite obvious. First is quality. The metal, the fabrication, the chrome, the details, etc. Yes, that's all there, but this can be said about lots of other companies as well. Second is the style. This is the big one. Maybe you are thrown off by how subjective it is? Carlini has styles that nobody else has and everyone loves. IMO though these styles don't extend the the batwing bikes, which is what you are looking at. Lastly, and sometimes a bit unfortunately, is b/c people like to buy names and feel like if they pay more they are getting more.

i agree i have Carlini`s on my wide glide and i love them. but what you said about not having a lot of styles for the batwing bikes makes perfect sense to me now . I Agree about the quality and you get what you pay for, and i can understand i premium is applied to the price because of the styles people demand but does not really apply to Carlini Bagger bars, i will still ploly buy Carlini bars the chrome is sweet on my apes on the WG.

Went and checked out the site for S's & G's. These batwing bars looked really cool sitting on the bench...

Sweet!!! I look forward to seeing those pics!!! Up until today I have not seen a batwing bar that I thought held a candle to Yaffe's MBB's. (Except the copies and none of them look quite as good IMO) These bars could be a SERIOUS contender! Like I said, depending on the required pull back to stay clear of inner fairing. I'll be looking for those pics.
