- Just a quick install video of the 14” Factory 47 bars on a 2020 Road Glide Special.
Aside from two wire extensions, you will use all of your stock hardware such as brake lines and clutch cable.
With a little patience, this is a rather easy install that could save you $$$$ in labor!
(Note* - at the end of the video I mention freeing up the brake line and throttle cable. That should have been the brake line and CLUTCH cable! Both run to the same connection on the frame, which you can release them from, giving you the slack needed to mount back to the new height of bars.)

One thing everyone doesn’t mention is when you pull on your cables for more slack. There is a plastic clamp on the front of the frame below the triple clamp. It will break! I put the 14” factory 47’s on my 2109 road glide ultra.(LOVE’EM) If you hear a click turning lock to lock (left/right) just a place to look. Zip tie it thru the frame and all good. No need for wire extensions save the loot .RSMF
600-700 dollars is a great deal. It ridiculous dealers are skilled but they want 9-10hrs of labor to install these. I get it, its not easy. But jesus for a guy that has done them 50+ times they can do the install in 3-4hrs. Thats why them call stealerships. Thanks for your help making the video.
Looks good. I did my bars on my road glide. I installed La Chopper Hammer Head bars. Yes sir save yourself some money. I’m subscribed
Love that you mentioned the areas to lengthen the brake and clutch cables. 99% of all road glide videos , skip right over that part.
How is the cutting of zip ties working?
Awesome thank you !
How do I know what grips to get ? Are there a certain size I need for the 47s factory?
About to install my 14's this weekend and have the wire extensions. When and where did install the two wires? Into the bar? Great video.
I have the exact same bike you just installed
Great content 👌. Did you have to get longer clutch and brake cables?
I have a 2022 Roadglide Special I will be installing 12" Factory 47 signature bars.
Thank you
Thanks brother!
Question ❓. Do the Arlen Ness grips work with the heated function? I can't find any grips that work.
Awesome look👍😎🇺🇸
Total width of the bars please?
What did you use to get the passenger grip off?
Doesn’t show that in the video
do i need extension cables for Harley Chizeled 14" ?
Good video
At 1:20, what is that 2 wire connector you are holding out of the way? Black and white wires. Thank you
Ive read a few places that the factory 47 bars feel too wide. Whst are your thoughts?
How can i remove the pin? Will a small hammer do?
Can i ask did you pull the throttle wire and the hand control wire taped together or do you do one and the retape the chain and do the throttle seperately one at a time?
When you changed your bars did you change your bushings too? I'm going to do my bar swap and HD told me I needed to swap my bushings. Bike is brand new though and has less than 500 miles
Yes, factory bushings are pretty flimsy... so I’d definitely swap them out while you have everything apart. The install on them are easy and they are relatively cheap, so you’ll definitely want to take advantage of the opportunity.
Two extensions? Were they included with the bars. If not do you have part numbers available. Thanks for sharing 👍
Yes need that answer?
I appreciate your video but can you please next time turn your phone sideways landscape mode. We can see a lot better , just saying no disrespect... I have a 22 Road Glide special , I just installed factory 47 bars omg it is really a pain and the hand and the fingers I've used cable pulling lube which I highly recommend it helps it's still hard especially when installing kahuna heated grips which I did that made the left side harder than right. If anybody gets frustrated trust me leave it alone take a break come back later and try again and it will work...
Great video. Where did you get the extensions from?
I got them from my Harley shop the day I purchased the bike. Not sure, but JP CYCLES or GET LOWERED may sell them online
@@zaccrymes3256 Thanks.
That was my question. The extensions. I got 12 inch factory 47 on but I’m gonna put 16inch factory 47. U think I’ll need the extension.
Question. I’m having a HELL of a time getting the right side wires and throttle cable in. There isn’t a lot of space. Did you run those through together or separate? The left side wires I got through with zero problems.
I fought it myself but ended up pulling everything through together. I ended up having to align everything where there was as little mass as possible being pulled through, then I just taped everything up solid so that it was uniform.
Best of luck... it can be frustrating.
@@zaccrymes3256 thanks for the reply brother. One more ? Ok so you cut the sleeves off both sets of wires and taped both sets of wires together?
@@kurtweiss7068 I did remove whatever sleeping may have been binding up, but nothing more than that. It’s been awhile but it seems like I may have also de-pinned a couple plugs just to get it through and then re-pinned everything.
@@zaccrymes3256 yup. Sounds right. I’m feeling like the plugs is what’s holding it up. Without them, I think going through will be much easier. Btw, great tip wrapping the outside of bars to protect them. Wish I would have seen your vid prior but I did scratch them too bad. Thanks again my friend. Very helpful.
So Harley of Fresno told me I had to buy longer brake and clutch cables with the 14 inch factory 47 set up ,, ?
If we’re talking about the same bike, then no you shouldn’t have to. 14” is the highest you can go with the Factory 47s and still use stock clutch/brake cables.
You will have to cut some zip ties and remove the lines from a mount in order to free up enough slack to use them though!
You will need the two extensions for your wiring, but everything else works perfectly! 🤙🏼
I put 14” bars on my ‘17 Road Glide as well. You do NOT need to extend any cables. Just cut the zip ties off like Zac mentioned.
@@zaccrymes3256 Hey Zac great video. A few questions; do you have the part numbers for the two wire extensions that need to be used? Now that you've had time to ride with these 14" Factory 47's, how do you like and find the handling of the bike?
Harley told me the same thing for my 19 SGS and said they won’t do the install with stock wires bc it’s not safe. After quoting me $1500 just for the install. Needless to say I won’t be going back to that stealership.
Did you disconnect the battery for the install, just wondering. Thank you
Why is the video so narrow?
Why didn’t you video in landscape mode? I stopped watching because you see anything looking at that sliver of a picture.
