  Hi, 

  
  

  I own a street 500 2017 and I would like to put ape hangers on my bike. I don't know at lot about bikes as I've only just got into it, I've always wanted ape hangers, but I can't seem to find anywhere that offers it. Anyone know how I can go about getting it done.

  
  

  Thank you, 

  Keith Allen

  Gee mate. My recommendation for a new rider would be to learn how to ride properly and forget form over function for a while.

   I agree with the comments above, but no reason you can't start researching.  A quick Google search shows other people that have put apes on the Street 500:

  ... and perhaps take note of the dumb ass laws when it comes the legal height of the handle bars on bikes (especially if your fresh with limited points against your license that you can play with)
  
  btw. why aps on a street 500? dont get it (especially if the rest is pretty much stock?????

  Hey Banger that’s the best lookin Street I’ve ever seen....top job man well done....

  
  

  

  
  

  ...and although I agree that it might be best to get plenty of experience before bothering, not to mention legalities, if it ain’t obvious why the OP wants to drop Apes on his bike then....doesn’t matter.....OP loves his bike, wants it to have the look.....the look he wants. Don’t we all. Lol cos it’s a street....fn lame. As usual.

  
  

  Keith - try Burleigh bars in Qld......they can help! Link below to their Apes for your bike.....you’re welcome.

  Hey Roo Ted......is your Boganville the one in New Guinea or mine....the one about 40km’s SW of Brisbane? If it’s the latter we should get out for a ride man......

  Great plan Dan, but I'm in Tassie. 

  Not really Boganville, call it Housoville if you like, you get the picture......

  But I do like how the apes change the look of the Street.

  Id hazard at a guess, this bike will be sold on when the license allows to go up to the bigger engines

  
  

  I would do very minimal changes to the bike until you get the keeper, then customize away
