Need more help on 10" mini Apes. Don't like the ones I chose
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.

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

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...
