12" Monkey Apes
« on: January 22, 2013, 03:52:19 PM »

I just received my bars from Paul Yaffe. Took 11 weeks to get them. Can someone tell me exactly what I will need to complete this mod. How much longer do the cables need to be etc. I'm not going to do this myself just want to make sure I have everything I need.

Thx
Ken

Ken,  Take a look here:  2009 SERG CUSTOM HANDLEBARS 1ST PICS.   BostonboyDH had his dealer install what look to be 12" bars.  Note reply #14 for what he needed.

If you would of told Yaffe, they would've sent you the whole kit especially for your set up. Hopefully that doesn't mean another 11 week wait though!!  LOL!!!

I had in hand, PYO 10's and 12's, and was talked out of installing them by many, especially by my
Mechanic.
I went with BukyBars.com Extremes 20X1.5's no problems in the internal wiring process, they don't have razor blades inside the bars like PYO's.
However, they were not a problem selling the PYO's.

I installed the 12" monkey bars on my 12 SERG and did not have to replace any cables and the wires were plenty long enough (no splicing) You may have to re-route your clutch cable a little to make it reach better.

That is great news. I ordered 12" Yaffe Bars for a buds bike along with the install kit. I'd rather not have to replace everything if not needed.

When I ordered the Yaffee 14" Monkey bars, they said 4 to 5 weeks, 10 weeks latter I got them.

I really like them.  I have put over 13K miles on them so far. 

Pretty sure I will be ordering a set of the 14's in chrome for the CVO King as I like them so much on the CVO Glide

I've got a set of Yaffe 10" monkey bars that should be here on Friday.  This should be a fun install and hoping that there are no issues or require any longer cables as others have advised for this size.  First set of apes and looking to install them on my 2013 SERGC.
