    Looking at the picture, all I can see is some stupid looking aftermarket handlebars on the Ryker.

    I've been told that here in Illinois it's against the law to have Ape Hangers (wrist) higher than your shoulders. Never would install them so I never checked out if that was true or not.

    I never understood apehangers. I would think it would put a strain on your shoulders and it would be harder to turn.

    I don't know but I think you better have some real arm and shoulder strength on a Ryker fo those. I rode a friend's Harley with apes different, all in what you want.

    Most states have laws against loud exhausts too. How's that working for ya?
