I came across a Stryker today with ape hangers. I couldn't believe my eyes. Had to do a double take. Wanted to stop and take a picture but was driving......did not look good by the way......just sayin

Don't care for them myself either. How the heck to you ride like that anyway. Cruising down a road is one thing...maneuvering in a parking lot has to be awkward at the least.

But hey...to each their own. I hope he/she enjoys them

 

[Spike45]

Yeah, definitely not my style at all!

That's why you see em doing the parking lot waddle, they have to walk their awkwardly set up bike any time they aren't going in a straight line lol

Now I'm curious as to the history of ape hangers....who was the first to design it... but mostly why????????

 

[11Stryker]

I bet Miko's Chimps will look nice though!!

Actually, they are not uncomfortable if they are not extreme heights. Had them on my Honda Shadow. 10" apes, still used stock everything. Don't knock it till you tried it.

I don't think we're referencing 10"...but true ape hangers. Arms above the head.

 

[loismustdie]

The ones I saw we're probably only 10-12" but the seat in the Stryker is so low that they looked like they would clip an overpass on the freeway....

I'm not a fan of big apes at all...they look stupid IMO

 

[Michael88997]

the Mini apes are pretty confortable to me.. almost bought a street bob with them.. but I like stock styker better

My Harley has mini apes, and I won't lie....aside from the shoulder/neck pains the first day..they were pretty comfortable....10 inch apes...
