thought I'd seen most everything.
Guess not.
WHY? :hun: :sour:
That was Xpeschon's bike... I believe that he now has an F-3
seen that one a couple times posted here when folks asked for higher bars...:dontknow: but not as bad as this guy...
Have you seen the pics of Lamont's latest Spyder ????? ................. Mike :thumbup:Quote:

They look good. But it makes my arms and shoulders hurt just looking at it. To each his own I guess. A ex friend of mine has a harley with ape hangers on it. He loves them but he also has dumped in a couple of gravel parking lots trying to turn around.
He must have liked the idea of it, and he made it work! :2thumbs:
Not my style...but for those who like it, go for it. :yes::yes:
Yeah, not my style either AK, but when you are 67, with loooong arms, they would come to shoulder height and be bloody comfortable. My last couple of bikes have had apes, albeit only 14 or 16, and that was such a comfortable position.;) I am between a rock and a hard place now. The current F3-L bars are a bit low, even turned to the highest position, especially now that the Daylong seat has lifted me 2, but I dont like the look of apes on a Spyder.Quote:

They're shoulder high and very comfortable.
They're great... :D
Until you catch a bee with your jacket sleeve, and it ends up in your armpit! :yikes:
Been there, done that. Slightly different circumstances. Riding with the neck wide open to get some air circulation. Drove through a swarm of bees. Ouch. :roflblack::roflblack:Quote:

Oh man, I've had worse hit my armpit. Killed a pair of mating dragonflies. Their shrapnel cuts. :gaah:
Had a bee up my fingerless glove once too. :cus:
I had a jacket I used to wear open for the breeze and it would collect wasps.Quote:

You're doing a crazy dance alongside the road trying to get the jacket off, Hubby is wondering what you're doing.
I got good at fast turnoffs and doing the reverse order of the above. The jacket went to charity.
Bees are the worst! You have to pick out all those throbbing little stingers. Not fun and glad you lived to tell the tale.
Would rather have wasps than bees any day of the week. nojoke
Life repeats - I had the same thing happen to be with a Yellow Jacket ..... But mine was in my Full face helmet :yikes::yikes::yikes:, you just have to live with the Pain until you can get stopped ....... MikeQuote:

Spotted this today as I was walking around my local town...The engine is obviously out of some small 50cc moped but I don't recognise it.
