imo, liked the way you had it before.

but if the new bars are more comfy for her, that's all that matters.

Not everybody likes apes. It's a style and feel that isn't for everybody.

True enough....that bike begs for a drag bar, IMO...but....if she is happy and comfortable with the apes and is RIDING...then good on her. Roll on!

I like it. Not a fan of the massive apes that some guys have, but those are ok.

I don't really care for the look, but I do understand how uncomfortable that slight lean can feel after a while.. on the longer rides my back is screaming at me.

I agree with the sentiments echoed here. I'm more of a drag bar kind of guy. But I can admire the work.

finally their bikes will start to look a little different. LOL have to check them out at home. I do like apes on some bikes and if it makes it more comfortable for her that's the most important thing.
I did have to mention the springer seat. (your future mods) i take it you mean the brown leather one from HD? I tried to get her to go for that but she didn't like it. I love the look of that seat.
what is the tank rise kit? does it lift the tank some?

I have a feeling I'm going to be busy this winter once she gets started with the "I want this on my bike" thing. LOL
