Great lookin ride TW I have the silver one coming in Feb, I am not a big fan of apes but I gotta admit those look pretty damn good on there!  I didn't realize the dealer would change out stuff like speakers, bars and such unless it was with HD parts, I will have to ask mine about that! Thanks for the pics, I have trouble sleeping sometimes now, must really suck knowing your bike is done and just waiting for pick up!  Enjoy the ride ! :2vrolijk_21:

I would imagine those dealers in the past that wouldn't do aftermarket installs, let owners bring their own parts/fluids for them to install will have a change of policy soon if not already. With things they way they are I would think they would want to get any and every $$$ they could when they could.

I'm diggin' those bars too.  I noticed on the Paul Yaffe site they come primed, then you paint or plate.

I wonder, would it compromise their strength if a competent welder shortened them an inch or 2 before the plating?

Wouldn’t that be akin to a breast implant reduction?  :)

I never thought about that.  Good idea!  Sure like the shape, I just like mine a little lower.  Thanks!!  :2vrolijk_21:

They are Yaffe bars but you need to go to his other website "baggernation.com" for those bars. They also list different sizes...

Wham!  There you go.  10" or 12" (I'm guessing the bars in this thread are 12") rise, 1" or 1.25" diameter.   Pre-drilled for internals & made for Road Glide. 

Thanks man.   :2vrolijk_21:

Jason  I am 5' 11".  It will be a few days before I get to ride it.  Gary the tech at the dealership that put everything together for me is a little shorter than me.  He said the bike is very comfortable.  I will get my chance soon.

The bars I ordered were the 10" version.  I did not measure to see if that was correct.

Is it just an optical illusion or what?  The 10" black bars in my post (just above yours) look shorter.

The black ones in the other picture do look shorter.  I didn't measure mine, maybe they sent me the wrong ones.  I think they look great, so if they are wrong, I won't change.  I will measure when I pick up the bike.

Look like at least 12's. I had 10" W1's and the were almost square (height:base). I put the 12.5's on and they look like yours, taller than it is wider at the base. They look at least 12" IMO. ;)

Either way, I like this bar.  It's edgy.
