Ok I posted last week trying to figure out a set of Mini Apes. (Do not really want to have to swap cables etc out) plus I'm pretty short. Anyways I got quite a bit of feed back which is appreciated.
Yesterday I picked up a set of Klock Werks 10" bars.

I installed them today and so far I am thinking I made a mistake.
The problem is the bars are really wide. (Measure 36" from end to end with grips on and are basically straight out. (Poor wrist position) The stock bars angle back quite a bit.

I tried several things like rotating them back some. Then I did something stupid I hate to admit but I decided to cut them down. At 32-33" they feel pretty good. (Stock is 31). Little did I realize the bars are Tapered and the Fly by wire module would not. Fit. So I had to weld them back together. No harm no foul, Other than losing time.


So now for the million dollar question, What bars?
I want bars that use the stock cables, Are not too wide and so on.

 

Harley makes a 10" mini ape - comes standard on the 09-up heritage softails. They feel good on the heritage, not overly wide. but you sit lower on a softail frame...

 

So they wil fit? That may be the answer.

 

Doing some research the base is not wide enough on a Batwing bike like mine.

 

i have theses on my 13 roadglide, did not have to buy cables bolted right on.
no matter what bars you buy though you really should replace the twist sensor in the bars so the plug is not in the bars. the mini apes are drilled to run the wires inside

 

Harley Bat Wing mini apes. All wires and cables are stock. Just have to move some stuff around a bit.

 

Installed these on mine and didn't change anything (except the mirrors), just re-routed the clutch cable.. And really like them. No complaints or regrets...

How's the mirrors working for you now? Wishing i hadn't installed the fairing mirrors now.

 

I don't have a problem with them. Just have to dip my head a little to look out them. The bars have been on the bike almost from the start so I'm use to them.

 

Wild1 10" chubbys. Have them one mine. Awesome
