Sweet! I keep changing my mind about going with ape hangers on my BO. But your bike looks great with them. Hmmm...

Haha yeah, it was a lot of work but I'm happy with them.  Puts my hands in a more comfortable position.  I'm still playing with the mirrors and the upper banjos.  I'll get it where I want it soon.  I went with 12", I'm 6'2" and this fits me perfectly.  Good luck on your decision and let me know if you need help.

I ended up wrapping each harness with electrical tape and put a thin layer of lithium grease over the entire harness.  The left side was very easy but the right side was a bitch with the throttle by wire, you have two on that side.  I used some heavy gage speaker wire to pull them through, didn't have any of the speaker wire shredded so I was confident my harnesses were fine.  Everything works great!

I worked on my brothers 03 1200C Sportster for hours. alot more wires it seemed. I cussed them bars like they stole my sandwich. Might have just been a bad day or there was no QC done on them for burrs and welding slag. Or MAYBE it was someone elses dream and when they woke I wasnt even there. hmmmmm.

Yeah I cussed and walked away a couple times on the first attempt, then I drank a beer and figured it out!  Funny how that works.  Still took me an hour or so with those bars.

I was ready to yank them bars off and wrap them around a tree I was so mad once. Beer of choice calmed me down.
