Hills is a great place to deal with, bought 2 complete sets, then parts to complete a bike I pieced together, very informative and helpful. Listen and pay attention to what they say about bleeding abs brakes you DO NOT!!! have to take it to the dealer to complete the task, I'm just an average mechanic and got it handled, Thanks Hills
Nice presentation. Straight forward & well spoken. Thank you !
Very informative and to the point. Thanks for the video.
Thank you for the info, I always go back and forth on apes.
Thank u for very informative videos and product info. I just ordered your 16" knurled apes with cables/ wiring kit of Amazon for my 20 heritage classic and im like a kid @ Christmas waiting for them to arrive lol.. thanks to ur videos and wiring kit I realized I could save a bundle by doing the job myself... just made sense to purchase everything from Hill Country since u guys are the ones that provided me with everything I needed. Thank u and keep up the good work👍
+Steve Owen you are very welcome. Glad we could help, and THANK YOU for your business. We really do appreciate it.
Very helpful video. Thanks for posting it.
Excellent video. Thank you.
Just installed your 14" Apes complete plug n play kit. Perfect fit and great quality
+David Lutter Well we really appreciate your business. Hope the videos helped you
Love your videos man. Thank you for all the continued info and help
Great video saved me alot of time messing about..uk wales.
I like the bars shown at the 27 second mark. I have a 2016 Road King Standard with factory 10” bars. Would like to have the bars higher maybe 14” and about two inches closer to me. Last is wrist angle. Like to have them close to 0 degrees. Nice video
Thanks for posting to each his own I had told apes on mine $500 mi day in the rain went right back to stock but do we just own
Very helpful muchas gracias👊🏾
Great video !!! Thanx it really heleped me
Awesome video! Thanks
Great vid, thanx.
I've found from the different bikes I've had is about 1 or 2 inches below shoulder height so your arm doesn't go numb and rain don't go up your sleeve.
Good information thanks
i started wanting 12 inch bars ended up with 16 inch jarheads from HCC wish i had got 18 or 20 inch...always go higher
I have the fat chizeled apes on my softail those feel and looks badass on my bike
Another great video. Very informative. Have you already done a video on making a single disc front brake into a double or can it even be done?
+Country Life It can be done, but it’s complicated. Much easier to go from dual disc to single disc. What’s the idea you have in mind?
With the fixed fairing I'm assuming the 12's are just above the fairing on the side. 10's are right even with the fairing mirrors and the 14's are right at stock bar mirror height.
Thanks!
nice video achievements! :)
Hey, I have an older electra glide with the anti dive in the handlebars are there any 12 apes for this style??
When i bought my Road King i put on 5 different bars before i even road it
Hey there im thinking of some apes for a 2001 RoadKing Classic im 5 foot 9,should I go with 12in, 14in. Thanks
Good control
Excellent. Blessings.
What do you have for a suzuki boulevard c50t
i have a 95 Honda Shadow vt1100C spirit that i ride everyday to work its a little bit of a ride what kind of apes would be best i go thru some tight curves
thank you!
+Jarhead6 your welcome
Do you have a Pic of a softail or roadking with 14" jarhead bars?
You absolutely have to change bushings if installing 12 or 14 inch bars and why
Do you have to?
We’re do these guys come from I e always ram in side by side formation and never had issues with wide bars ever.
I have a '13 fat bob and getting bad neck pain about 50 miles into the ride. Been wanting apes. But a buddy told me to go with a different seat 1st. What should I do? I'm 6'2" and the bike is stock. Please help and if you could send a link
What bars are on the white heritage/deluxe in the thumbnail?
Muito bom irmão !!!
Necesito ayuda donde puedo comprar el kit para una kawasaki vulcan Classic 1500cc

He looks like the punisher if he found a career instead of wanting revenge
I'm about to own my first Harley Davidson dyna glide 1997 model and very first ever motorcycle that I have ever owned. So with that being said, having starting out riding a 1430cc motorcycle for the first time riding a motorcycle is not going to be easy when I have to learn how to ride my bike and I'm use to riding dirt bikes and bicycles and mopeds and scooters etc and Tom I make the official trade for a dyna glide motorcycle and I'm searching for tips and info on everything I need to learn before I ride away in the wind.... Lol I'm super excited but I got many questions about Harley Davidson motorcycles and do you recommend anything for us beginning on Harley Davidsons.
Who should I subscribe to and follow
Did u get it? You riding it? Hows it going? Started with a 750 metric for my first bike and i outgrew it quickly. Hope u loving it bro.
If I get a set of 16 in ape hangers for a 94 Softail custom can I use my stock clutch cable and throttle cable or do I have to buy cables too?
Most likely you’re going to need cables and wire extensions. 16” is a big step up from stock. Good luck!
Can you please tell me what kind of apes I can put on my 07 suzuki boulevard c50t.im 5'11 tall
+tx made Not real sure, I own only familiar with Harley models.
Cakep bang...
I keep seeing pictures of the white road king on the internet (you briefly show a picture of it), but I can’t find any information on the bars (make/model/height). Looks to be one of your bikes. Can you provide any information?
I'm with Anthony, can we please get sone info on those road king bars.
Hi, I've a pro street breakout, I'm 5ft 10 and thinking of changing to ape hangers. Which height should I go for 12inch or 14.
Did you not watch the video?
What height are the bars you show height measurement on. The bagger your standing behind.
20” HCC Hell Bent
Appreciate it fixing to order some brake and hydraulic lines from you guys. I’ve ordered a set of 16” Yaffee Monkey Bars. Your videos are a big help to us all.
What we need know also is slow turn mobility. What height does it start taking affect of your slow turns, if any. I've heard some say it's hard to turn especially with 16" bars.
+Carolina Rider it certainly does change it, but it’s not any harder, your still going slow. If anything, once you figure it out, it makes you a more confident rider. And that makes it even sweeter. Just my 2 cents.
I have a 1999 road king , how tall of apes can I get away with before having to change cables and wires etc etc. ..... thanx
None
@@turfguy420 what do u mean none?....
I was told 12" at my Harley dealer, and a buddy who out 12s on his 2020 RK, who works at another dealer..
What apes are in the 2nd picture awesome vid
+icEy skYz blackwell Those are 20” hell bent bagger apes, 1 1/2” diameter. Really nice bars!!!!
@@HillCountryCustomCycles they look great do they fit sportsters/softails? Oh and i really like the apes at 0:30 the chrome ones as well
+icEy skYz blackwell yes, we have some that do, just search Hell Bent on our website
@@HillCountryCustomCycles thanks man il check em out
....and always go one and a quarter inch, never one inch, it looks 100% better.
That white bike looks sexy az bro
🛑🛑 Know Your State Laws 💯!!
I saw cops measuring bar heights in Ocean City MD, last year; handing out tickets.
That video should be renamed, handle bar buying for dummies
Don't.
ape hangers equal poor handling, anyone who says diff is clueless or not being honest.tellin ya
everyone doesn't ride a hd some of us have better bikes. do you have any videos on metric bikes Boulevard c 109r owner her.
Nah... They ruin the long, low effect of the bikes.
The quickest way to make your bike dangerous and stupid looking is to put this stupid crap on your bike. Just because dumbasses think it looks cool doesn't make it so!
