Even Johnny Bravo likes apes! I love the look of drags too on a chopper/bobber, just don't see how you guys are comfortable riding them.
I would however check the thickness of the bars. Apes will take more stress in an emergency stop.
Like was said, prolly ok, but check anyway.

Uglee, Is Union a pick and pull type of yard? I haven't been out there before. I might need to hit them up if I ever decide to build up that KZ1000 chopper frame I have.

Damn son! Now I know why you call it the yamahoe!

Pink is my favorite crayon, yeah
Pink it was love at first sight
Pink when I turn out the light
Pink it´s like red but not quite
And I think everything is going to be all right
No matter what we do tonight



I might just take you up on your offer. When it cools off a little.

No, I've never seen one like that, but I must say that I do like it better than any other fairings I have seen. It reminds me of mine. Ed
