I could use the pull back also. I'll be watching your replies. I'm thinking about 14" Yaffee bars. The wrist angle is supposed to be very good on them.

I really wanted to go to a Yaffee Monkey. The only thing thats stopping me is that they just don't look right if pulled back out of line with the front forks. What to do??

I had the 508's on  a 2004 RK and loved them. I just bought a 2014 CVO RK and hate the bars that come with it. I will either go back to the 508's or possibly the 12 1/2 apes. I couldn't believe the dealership wants 8 hours labor because of the ABS. Any advice on the apes would also be appreciated.

If you don't want an Ape hanger, check out the New Wave Bar from BR's custom bars. The also have Bent Ape Beaters, with 5" Pullback and a 22 deg wrist angle. Very nice, just a lil wait for construction. Built to Order also, whatever you need.

These are 14" Bent Ape Beaters.

Yaffee 12" Monkey Bagger Bars.  In line with the front forks.  I can lean back on the backrest and still reach the bars comfortably.

 I went with bars from these guys and they also build to suit for quite a bit less then BR and their service and quality are both excellent:  www.vindikta.com

Ok guys now it is time for some help. I ordered the Wild 1 502's but Harley is telling me the only extended cables are chrome braided not the pearl black that comes stock with my 14 CVO RK which also means chrome connectors instead of black. They are also saying the lower brake lines need to be replaced when I do the job instead of just the top one which makes since to me since it is longer. The bottom ones do not change. Has anybody else had this issue and if so what did you do?

magnum has nothing or goodridge for the 2014 actually no one does, only HD, but they don't even have the correct lengths above 14" bars(I think) my cvo  sat for a month while I researched for brake lines.

How do you like the 16 apes? I went with the 12 1/2 but not sure if I should have gone higher.
