Hi all, I have a 2001 Sabre 1100 and was wondering if anyone knows what size apes I can get and be able to safely use the stock cables / wiring. I've heard some say 10" and some 8" with the stock risers. Has anyone tested it out for themselves? Any specific recommendations?

I'm wondering what you guys have opted for in regards to different master cylinders for clutch and brake (both hydraulic) I changed my bars from the Buckhorn and don't like the angle of the masters. I don't want to risk going with the cheap ones off ebay and would like some quality options to...

As you can see, the cable is curved and bowed out quite a bit. This is because the bars are not stock (drag bars I inherited) and there is extra slack. Problem is when I turn bars full right, the cable kinks more and pulls on the clutch and engages it a bit. Any ideas for rerouting it so it...

I live in Indiana and in July I’m planning on packing up my bike and going to Florida and not coming back. I’ve never rode distance like that before(~1k miles) most I’ve done is about 300-400 miles in a day. Looking for any advice and/or recommendations. I’m planning on a smaller rear sprocket...

Hello, I am new to owning a motorcycle and have little knowledge on them but I have a 1997 Honda shadow vt1100c and I was looking to swap out grips and even get a phone mount however my bar is enormous compared to others I have seen. I measured the diameter and it comes out to 4.75in. Was this...

Almost every phone mount I see says it's good for 1"-1.25" maximum thickness handlebars. Is it just me, or do the Interstate VT1300CT handlebars come in a little bit fatter? What are people using as phone mounts for these bigger bikes? I bought a less expensive one but can't even seem to get it...

There are seemingly 100's of posts on it. So, if this gets removed, I understand. I want the handlebars closer to me on my ride and have swallowed the big pill of having to go from T-Bars to risers with a clamp style. I've got those, but before I start tearing down and reinstalling, I know I'm...

Yo. After replacing the handlebars on my shadow I just cant get the bars stuck properly. Nor the risers or bars have groves in them but seeing as my previous ones didn't have them either I feel like I should be fine. (The old ones never moved) Tried some quick methods from the webs such as the...

Hey guys, Pretty new here, and with a fair bit of at home, everyday knowledge but this is going to be my first big project. I have a 2004 Honda Shadow Aero VT750 (pictured - based in Australia) and was eventually hoping to do a big custom job it, just make it mine. I love it and I want to...

Just bought 10” Mini - Apes for my 99’ VT 750 Ace Deluxe. On the off chance I need cables I can’t find 6”+ over stock for that year. I can’t even find the stock length to go from there. Does anyone know of any that would. Or if buy chance the VT 1100 cables are different from the 750. Because if...

Just ordered 12 inch ape hangars I just need to know if I need wire extensions or I can get away without paying for them. And if I do does anyone know a safe height that I defiantly wouldn't need wire extensions?

Hello! I am working this next weekend to replace my stock handlebars. I have a 2014 Honda Shadow Phantom. I am replacing stock handlebars with z bars from TJ Brutal Customs. 8'' rise on the handlebars themselves, with 1'' risers. I am curious if I'll need new cables, and if so where would be...

I’m changing my bars ten inch bars, and my cables are to short not sure how to get the appropriate length of cables needed, so figured I would start with the oem cables length an go up from there

Couple months ago I bought a 97 vt1100 ace in great shape, it was well maintained by the previous owner, has just over 87000km on it, I've got things I'm changing out on it and I've been able to do a few different things so far. I'll continue to post pics until I'm at where I'd like to be with it.
