    Cant decide,  no this is not a what should I do

    I like the Burleigh Highball 2 inch, but I am starting to like the Factory 47 12 inch, it's the pointy bits at the top I am not keen on
    I feel that in a crash, they are a danger to me, this stems back to when I T-boned a commodore (who failed to give way) on my Nightrain and cut my arms on my mirrors

    and they are both around $1500 installed, I find it hard to pay around $800 for a meter of bent pipe

    I summersaulted over the bonnet and landed 20 meters up the road. If that bike had ape hangers I would have been fucked.

    yet the factory 47's are growing on me

    and they fill fit the standard cables where there is an argument the Burleighs wont
