    Yes and thank you. I'm taking these 16 apes off of my fxr (why I ever put these things on here I will never know) and putting on some stock bars off of a 2008 fxdx with a super glide. If I get them.

    Probably have to get shorter cables, too.

    That's cool. Stock cables aren't very expensive. Especially if I buy them one at a time.

    The size of the fork tubes don't make any difference on the handlebars. The size of the handle bars is what matters.

    All I was asking was if a super glide is the same as a 39mm witch it is and that is what I have is a super glide which is a 39mm. But while you got me thinkin about it. Is the center spacing on a set of bars that will fit a wide glide (41mm) the same as on a narrow glide (35mm)? I never thought that much about it.
