Re:Bagger apes? 1 Year ago  
inside of upright to inside of upright is 15 inches across. I know they're 14 inch apes, think they have something like 5 inches of pullback but dont quote me on that one, ill have to go back downstairs in a minute to remeasure. im assuming you mean grip to grip as the spread?

Re:Bagger apes? 1 Year ago  
Todd's is the the bar I have on my bike (pic below), a 12" Todd Stripper. Check the price at Phat Performance Parts and Chrome Addiction. I got my from Chrome Addiction since I was getting some HD stuff from them at the time. I got them in black since I knew I would be color matching them to my bike.

My first choice was BR's (likely with "fangs" ) and I actually talked with him about the specs (great guy...check his videos). However, his delivery date at the time was beyond my target launch/ride date. Road6 was another one I really liked. I went with the Todd's and am really happy with them. They are drilled and dimpled, and knurled for R* risers already...great quality.
