    Save time? I've been doing this work for a month already! First i couldn't run wires through a sharp angle on the handelbar, then i bought handelbars with rubber caps on the sides where i could hardly run wires, then the main problem is the stock handelbar has 1.25 inch clamp width, but 99% percent of all ape hangers have 1 inch clamp base, then it was hard to find 1 inch mount, when i found it eventually I found out that it doesn't have thread for my original bolts and i need different bolts with nuts which now i can't find anywhere, what a pain in the ass, i don't understand how almost everybody has those ape hangers installed if there are no proper parts 😢

    Years ago a Kawasaki mechanic told me that.......well he didn't specify lower bolt, I had been removing upper, yesterday raising rear on Sportster w/stock pipes the bottom bolt was in the way But I don't lower bike to take axle out over the pipes, I raise the bike to take axle out under the pipes......also makes it easier to get wheel out from under fender As with the Sportster yesterday, I was just making room to get into the left turn signal

  • @davidrsmith2417
    @davidrsmith2417 Před měsícem

    Shoulder height bars will never work for ANY dual sport or adventure motorcycle. Ditto for 99% of non-Harley touring bikes. Never on a sport bike. Only for Harley riders who never go off road. Even gravel roads can become dangerous with ape hangers. Note that all ape hanger bars can cause worse rider damage on frontal crashes compared to lower stock bars. Finally note that for the best motorcycle handling and quickness, ape hangers are the worst type of bar ever designed. Ape hangers are for vain riders, mostly newbies, that think they will make their bike look "bad". Or just plain silly.
