The apes are actually really comfortable! I love em! The rigid struts i made for it are getting kinda uncomfortable on long rides but oh well. When ever i get enough money ill get a Street Glide or a Victory Cross Country for the long runs and keep the bobber for around town and stuff.

Are they cut to the same length? the front looks longer than the rear, and I always thought that they had to be equal in length for some reason.

they are almost the same length. the front one looks longer because of the heat shield.

The first mod I did with mine (the second day I owned it  :43: ) I ripped the mufflers off and ran the pipes bare...not much longer than yours. And yes, loud as hell.  :lol: Currently run high/low 2" drags. I seemed to always get the shoulder side of the road when riding with others.  :lol: I also used to run apes, 15" with a 3" straight riser from a wide glide. Thee absolute most comfortable set of bars I ever had on a bike.  :up: The last set are flat drag bars with a 8" riser (needed to clear the tank) and they suck, plain and simple. When the bike goes back together (hopefully this winter) she will get the apes back. The down side with the tall bars is getting used to one handed corners.... :lol:
