serk with apes
« on: May 21, 2007, 05:17:09 PM »

I am new to this forum and tried searching for pics, I am looking for pics of a serk or other with apes, 12, 14, 16 + ape hangers. I also wanted to know where to get extended hydraulic clutch lines. Also any opinions would be great.
Thanks

Hi cvo2003 and welcome to the forum.

Take a look at this thread by Hoist, plenty of pics on his bike.

http://www.cvoharley.com/smf/index.php?topic=13679.0

Howie's motto - buy a SERK worry about the warranty for a while and then throw as much chit at the fan as possible - result one cool BI SERK.

Happy Days !

They're perfect. I made the mistake of sitting on one today with 12.5" W1's! Man, I screwed up, they're even more comfortable than the 10" W1's I put on! And wouldn't you know, the dealer had a set of 12.5's in stock. Well, he just ordered me a 4" over clutch hyd. line! Anyone need to buy a pair of 10" W1's? ::) Hoist! 8)

Hoist,
I thought the tens would be great too but a friend at the dealer said better look at the 12.5"s and we did a dry run and he was right. I'm 6' and it's perfect.

Howie, are the 12.5 inchers any wider?  Yours are plenty wide right now.  If they're just a little taller can certainly see how the feel might be even better.  Would hate to be doing quick turns with bars even wider than your current ones though.

Apes on Road Kings were always a love/ahhhh thing with me.  I loved the feel.  But was always ahhhhhh on the look.  Getting a set of bars that just put all your own parts where you want them to be is a big deal though.

They are 1/2" wider Don. No big deal, especially since the comfort due to the height, is so much better. They also look much better! ;) Hoist! 8)

After being on yours that short bit a 1/2" wouldn't worry me either.  You'll get used to that in no time.  Another two inches and we'd have to put you on the rack and stretch you out some though.

You need to understand something though Howie.  This means I'm gonna have to ride it again at Hot Springs.  Will have to feel the difference of course  :bananarock: !
