i decided to go with 12'' Paul Yaffe monkey bars have to wait 5-7 weeks

I know it's not a RG but I have the 12" Yafee's on my SG. I'm 5'-8", 145 lbs. and they are perfect.

Just wanted to post a picture. You'll just have to imagine the look without a fairing.

They call them 12" bars but they are closer to 13 1/2" tall. Very comfortable for a 5'-8" tall skinny guy like me. I was a little worried when I was installing them but was surprised at the comfort.

When you look up new bars in the HD catalogue They all say for  up to 2013 they do not include the 14 model year. Is there a reason they won't fit. I just ordered Wild one 502 and they said they will fit the 14 model .      Thanks Billy

Just wanted to say hello, new mem.(1st post) also this is my 1st HD.  I bought the the Orange cvo.  have been debating on what color bars you all would recommend? chrome? black?  I'm going with todd cycles 17", had the opportunity to mock up some PY's oem (16") I found them too wide at the cross bar, slightly went past the cover.  The todds were nicer in my opinion. I just can't decide on color
 
here are the Todds  these are from today    that's my Bro who works for HD


yaffe's oem   this was the same day I took my cvo home

Thanks for posting those pics.  The BR Customs bars I ordered will look very similar to those.  I ordered them in black since that would match the crash bar and black hand controls. 

[HRider]

your welcome,  I plan on removing the crash bar, but maybe accent the controls with new res. lids and maybe some mirrors
to keep it even, I'm getting 50/50 which scheme to go with.

I think chrome is better... I consider it for my bike and chrome match well with the front ( fork and wheek )
and it's more... shinny

canceled my order from Paul Yaffe now waiting time is around 12 weeks, no tnx I will look somewhere else for bars.
I still can't believe that someone needs 3 moths to build a handlebar.

smart move,
I just dropped of my bike today at the dealership. should be done by the end of the week if not next week, they seem pretty busy.
also getting ready to order my exhaust from D&D but they are a 2 weeks out on them. I hate playing the waiting game.

Cant wait to see the finished product HRider.   I've got some 16" BR Customs bars on the way for mine.   Seeing yours finished will give me a good idea what mine will look like.   Are you using the stock clamp?   I plan to.

Waited 9 weeks in spring of 12 for the 14" Yaffe Monkey bars in black for my 12 SERG.  Love the bars, have 25K miles on them.  First week in December I will be ordering the same bar, but Chrome for my 13 SERK.  Worth the wait in my opinion.
