  • Make your ape hangers on your‪@harleydavidson‬look "finished!" The day the Fairing Exchange put my ‪@kstkustoms1324‬ 18" bars on my Road Glide they showed me something on one of their bikes I had to have. Proper, metal cable clamps that would keep your bike looking organized and proper. I hunted down some from ‪@HillCountryCustomCycles‬ on Amazon, and I freaking love these!
    Here is the link, they're only $20! amzn.to/3GzLrOF

    Love these clamps. Use them on my 95 Fatboy. They work good on the front left frame down tube to replace the factory clutch cable clamp. And I use the double clamp for the throttle and idle. Your bars look awesome.

    Welcome back Brother! Hope you rebound quickly from jet-lag. Nice, functional & inexpensive cable clamps for managing cable alignment, sway, etc. with tall bars & longer cables. Looking forward to the Radioactive Green build...looks freaking awesome.
    Also, looking forward to your Tuning Videos (Dynojet Power Vision PV3b, '21 and newer HD). I ran same tuner (base map from fuel moto) on my '21 RGS 114 Stage-2 (S&S 465 cam, S&S 2-1 Sidewinder, FM/K&N 3956 air cleaner) w/stock OE narrowband O2 sensors and it worked really well. For my '23 RG-ST (Stage-1 right now...S&S 2-1 Sidewinder and HD-SE Extreme Ventilator air cleaner, I plan to run same Tuner (PV3b) but also run Dynojet TT-8 18mm wideband O2 sensors. Again, welcome back!

    I really like the green paint. I can not say how autotune compares to a tuner. I had my power commander go bad. It was replaced and the bike was tuned. The a little over a year later I had the bike dyno tuned again. I was trying to get more MPG out of it. The bike was running at a 12 to 1 air fuel ratio. They leaned it out to 13 to 1 air fuel ratio at full throttle. I gained 7hp and 8lbft of torque. Unfortunately I only gained about 1MPG on average. The tune cost me $360. The biggest surprise to me is the only place I found near me to get my bike dynotuned was the Harley Davidson dealer. Why I was shocked is because it is a Honda VTX1800R. With all the talk of Harley dealers not working on older Harleys. This one worked on a Honda.

    G'day Mr & Mrs monkey....
    WARNING ❗❗
    From personal experience & I still using these exact product from Drag Specialist, now little TIP....
    My clutch cable out side of cable was wearing, so unclasped & put some electrical tape on the clutch cable to provent damage...
    Also your brake cable being loose & siding inside the bracket WILL EVENTUALLY RUB & DAMAGE ❗
    So I put a little electrical tape again on the brake cable & everything is perfect.
    ALSO I put a little electrical tape on the inside of the bracket on the bar side, to prevent damage to the bars .... As WILL scratch in the long run❗
    Do whatever you like but this was my experience & what I've done to make them work properly & without issues in the long run.....
    Living The F🤪KING Dream ❗
    Safe travels 🙏♥️🐾🐾🇦🇺
