I just changed my bars out using you video. Hardest part for me was de pinning the connectors. You vid gave me the confidence to do it myself and saved me 1300 bucks. Thank you! 👍🏻
Good stuff man, yep depinning the clips is tricky. Thankfully I was just able to squeeze the wires through the bars without depinning the clips. Crazy how expensive it is to get bars installed hey.
Hello , i own a street bob 114 of 2021 , i'm from France et i see your videos with great pleasure and your explanations are always very well detailed. Take care of yourself and ride cool. Denis
Great video! I had been looking all over for a video on these Bung King risers with no luck until now. Was not sure if the 10 inch rise would be tall enough but it looks plenty. Thanks for the vid!
I’m so glad you did this video. I’ve been looking at these risers for a bit now and wondered about needing wire or cable extensions. All of my questions were answered in this vid. It looks amazing. Nice work
Thanks man, prior to installing these bars, I couldnt find alot of info online either regarding if stock cables and wiring would work. Glad it was able to help you out 👍
Your videos are awesome when I was going to do the forwards on my street bob you did that video 👍I'm about to do bars once again a very helpful vid perfect timing "love the channel bike is looking good
I just got me a 19' industrial gray, and I just started following your videos. About to set up my bike exactly like yours. Excellent how to, keep it up man.
@@stevend805 havnt done them yet but they're on the to do list. I know they will work with this exhaust though. The exhaust sits lower than the passenger peg mounting point.
Another nice install Gingybeard Man! Looks great, don’t mind the haters. Make it your own. Thx for the knowledge. I am now confident I can install my Z bars. Ride safe brother!
Really happy you posted this video!! I've thrown on some mods on my bike and have been needing a good video like this to help me with the bars! So even a 9in bars with 1-2in pull back should be perfect for the clutch cable right? Keep up the great videos man!
Awesome video. Thank you for sharing. I'm thinking of going with the bung king risers but I want a little pullback in em. Pick up a set of "flush cut" dikes next time you're at the tool store for those zip tie ends and thank me later ;)
Thanks man, These bars are pretty close to being perfect for my reach and height however if I had my time again I would go with the lucky Dave's lucky 13 bars as they have a pullback. Also the biltwell gauge mount I purchased will fit those bars. These bars sit a little bit further forward than stock, but it's not too bad.
Looks great! Though I'm curious about the way you routed your wires from the bottom of the risers to the shroud. Would they not fit if routed through the hole at the top of the triple tree like the stock wiring?
They were extremely tight if you run them the stock way through the triple trees. They do work but are a bit tight for my liking. I'm going to add some length to the wiring and run it through the triple trees. I'll do a vid on it soon
bike is looking great! I'm looking forward to putting these on my bike. I was curious about the angle of the digital display. Is it difficult to read now that its not pointed directly at you?
I was wondering if I even needed to buy brand new cables instead of just getting extenders but I switched my '19 fxbb to 18" inch apehangers so guess I need them. Thanks for the vid I may actually have the confidence to change them myself instead of paying Harley $800 just for labor haha
It does take a fair bit of time to change them just because of all the internal wiring in the bars. If you have the patience it's certainly not a hard job it's just time consuming. $800 for the install is crazy, I'd rather put the money to more parts 🤙
I bought aftermarket bars for my 2018 Harley breakout, within days it moves forward and back, I use a rubber strip that worked for 2 days lol. What do you recommend? Oh I noticed no cruves/grip on the bars too
Great installation video, You made it look super easy (maybe there was more troubles behind the scenes) but your video encourage me to do the job myself. I hope it will go as smooth as yours. Just one small question, why did you decide to change from mini ape hangers to the club style (kind of Tbars)? Is it for look preferences or more comfort? Cause I am actually going for a mini ape for my FXLR...Thanks for the inspiration.:)
I have these same risers but my bars are a 4” rise. Think I should also order brake/clutch lines? Extensions for the wires? I don’t know if it will sit at a true 14. Maybe. 13.5 by the time it’s installed.
My wiring is at its limits with these risers and bars, my bars are at an overall height of 13 inches. Also my brake line is pretty much at its limits too. I think you should be right with your brake and clutch line but I'm unsure about your wiring. Let me know how you get on 👍
Good job mate👍 I'm sure it'll be a more comfy arm position. I'm with you I reacon the club style looks great aswell. That's one part of a big market that Harley's pretty dumb not to have jumped on for a standard bike I reacon.. What type of seat is that if you don't mind me asking, and do you know if it's any good comfort wise for a passenger? Keep the Vids coming mate your doin a good job and there's always someone out there that you're helping👍👍
Thanks brother appreciate it. It's the saddleman step up seat, I've done quick a review video on it. I havnt put any passenger pegs on the bike yet but will do soon. In saying that I believe it provides more padding for the passenger than most aftermarket seats 👍
The Gingybeard Man nice install you are really careful. I’m not and the first thing I would have done was drop something on that beautiful tank! That’s why I always cover it with a thick towel. We always used tall glide risers with dragbars on Wide Glide front ends but your fairing has me scratching my head. I have seen this recently but though it was just a mismatch of parts but this is called “club”? That’s a new one on me. That’s why they call them custom!!!
@@XXX-qk2cq thanks mate, yeah Google club style harley, and you will see loads of harleys usually dynas with high rise T bars, a fairing, sqareback seats and 2 into 1 exhausts. This "club style" has been a big thing in So Cal for years. People either hate it or love it 👍
Hey man love the videos, been subbed for a while now. Would you be able to comment the link for the extended gauge wiring? Im looking to do the 10 inch rise with a one inch pullback. You think the stock wiring will reach? Cheers in advance!!
@Canadian FXBB ,Hey man thanks for the support. The website link is guerrillacables.com/2018-2019-softail-street-bob-breakout-fxdr-speedo-harness/ You will need to go with the 22 inch speedo cable which is 6 inches longer than stock. The stock speedo wiring won't be long enough if you go with the 10 inch bung king bars.
With the low rider You may need to lift your tank up by removing the front mounting bolt. Once the tank is lifted at the front you will be able to access the large rubber tab which covers a hole in the frame where the wiring goes into. Once you remove the large rubber tab from the frame you will be able to access your wiring inside the frame. Hope that makes sense mate 👍
@@TheGingybeardMan yeah I’ve got the biltwell gauge relocation bracket on order along with the bars. Like everything now it all a waiting game! Great to see u back on a Harley mate. Enjoy the Sporty!
Hi mate! Just changed my bars with help from your video!! BUT did you get any fault codes when starting up the bike after? I got like 4 codes.. but we just erase them then it didn’t came up again.. Thanks for a good video!
Yeah man I got the fault codes aswell. The codes will pop up if you don't disconnect your battery before disconnecting the wiring to the bars. No need to worry if you clear the codes and they dnt pop up again 🤙
Good Morning , I am debating on these t bars or the monster dna apes. I read some reviews that the ape have a bad paint or powder coat. Just wanted to get you thoughts . I really like the t bars but i am concerned that i will not be able to see gauges. also if i could get you opinion on that. Thanks .
At my height of 5 foot 9 inches tall it was really hard to see the guages with these risers. I ended up buying a riser block off plate from bungking and buying another gauge mount which mounts lower on the bungking risers. That enabled me to see the gauges easily. I haven't had any issues with the dna apes and the powder coating is top notch on my bars 👍
@@TheGingybeardMan thanks for your quick response. I went through the other comments and I figured you had to reset the codes post install. That helps, Thank you!
The 10 inch bung king risers work fine with the stock brake and clutch cable however wont work with the stock speedo wiring. In my opinion the 8 inch risers dnt look as good but they will work with all the stock wiring and cables
Yeah man I got the fault codes aswell. The codes will pop up if you don't disconnect your battery before disconnecting the wiring to the bars. No need to worry if you clear the codes and they dnt pop up again
Do either of you have a before photo from before you unplugged the wires I’m having trouble sorting out the wires I seam to have one spot still open and a plug a wire that doesn’t seam to go anywhere not sure where I messed up
Hey man I switched my bars and when i was plugging all the wires back in i cant seem to find the 2 prong portion of the throttle cable wire that comes from the bike? Not sure how that happened, any thoughts?
Those bars are perfect. I’m looking to mount them down low. More of a classic naked bike height. How was running the wires? I’ve heard stories of people struggling to get the wires through the smaller openings in these. Might just be negative marketing by the Harley spare parts folks.
It is a little tricky to get the wiring through the bars. I only had to depin one of the clips on the right hand side controls to fit them through the bars. Otherwise if you're patient and have plenty of time it can be done without any issues.
Good to see people doing there own custom work, not hating on it at all in any way (the club style look is over done & certainly not my thing) but the wiring should have come down through your upper triple tree where it was stock
Was wondering how long it would take someone to realise how I run the wiring. The stock wiring is a bit too short with the 10 inch risers if you run it through the triple trees the way it was stock. I personally havnt seen many club style harleys in Aus. As you can see I'm a huge fan of the style..... I guess that's all that matters though.
@@TheGingybeardMan hahaha yeah I am OCD when it comes to my cars n bikes especially so I notice things like that There is tons of older Dyna Street Bob etc bikes done with the "club style" look in Aus & more & more of the M8's popping up, they all have something a bit different I guess but all the same visually really, I couldnt have that, im all about creating a different look & finding them different unique parts that nobody else has or has never even seen 1 thing I dont get though is the club style bar setup overall with 10" risers....sure it changes the look but the stock bars are around 10"-11" rise anyway so the actual rise is the same, it is now just limited to a tiny bit of adjustment rolling the MX shape bars forward & back a tiny bit, might change the overall feel a bit but the grips are around the same spot but the gauge setup has been messed with & moved up which leaves all the wiring hanging out & just seems pointless for no real actual gain I had to roll the stock bars forward a tiny bit to make it comfy for me (5'11"), with your new setup it looks like the bars are back quite a bit now which might be fine for you I guess but it would be terrible for me How does the new setup feel compared to the stock bars Again as mentioned not hating on it I just dont get it
HI there, What torque setting are used to snug handlebar bolts ( gauges, not risers) I would like push forward handlebar but not a clue what torque settings are. Thanks
Did you need to disconnect your battery before disconnecting the electrical? I’ve seen other videos where they said it threw some codes when they reconnected the electrical.
I am going to be putting on dominator industries MX 12" bars and I was told by a mechanic that when I reconnect the wires after installation that it would "throw a code" or an error message and maybe not be able to start the bike until the code is cleared, did you encounter this? This mechanic also told me this was a real hard job, I know you mentioned in the video that it took you some time but did you have any big issues other than threading wiring through the bars? thanks in advance, bike is looking awesome.
The hardest part is just running the wiring through the bars which isn't too bad if you're patient. After my bars were installed it did throw a code which was easily cleared. In a few of the comments I've attached a link which guides you through clearing the codes 👍
@@TheGingybeardMan one of the pins at the male was bent, took me a while to rethink and check internally, but now all is OK! Keep up your great job with your videos.
I saw how you said the cables are pretty much at their fully extended point. I just got 11” risers for my 2019 street bob. Do you know which harness extension/ digital gauge extension I should order?
@@peterganse I can't exactly remember the length of the extension I purchased but I believe it was the 6 inch one. Here's a link to the website guerrillacables.com/2018-2020-softail-street-bob-breakout-fxdr-fxst-speedo-harness/
Mate I'm not 100% sure if the left grip is grip glued onto the bar. If it is glued then it'll be hard to remove. If you can get the left grip off without damaging it you should be good to reuse it 👍
@@chrismayberry7689 cheers mate, the only sissy bars I really like the look of, are the ones on Etsy. Just type in softail street bob sissy bar and a few will pop up from the same seller. They would be the only style of sissy bar I'd go with. For some reason I couldn't copy the link 😪
No man I didn't go with any pullback. It felt like a perfect reach with the saddleman seat but with the whiplash slipstream seat I find I'm reaching a little more, but it's still not an issue.
I'm 5'9" I can see the speedo but in direct sunlight it's a bit hard to read. You can install the dominator industries guage mount on these bars if it's too much of a problem and install the bung king riser top clamp in place of the stock guage mount.
@@toniotonio1853 the over all rise of these bars is 13 inches and they are extremely close to their limits. If You were to go with other t-bars which have a rise height of 13 inches make sure they arnt wider than these bars which are as wide as stock.
I think its a mistake to set the bars to your reach with elbows locked (full outstretch). If this is a little too obvious, forgive me. I find it rather helpful to maintain reach on both the grips and levers when steering the front wheel. As a matter of personal taste, I would settle for drag bars on this model bike and maybe score pullback risers with very little added height, just for some easier arm reach only. Thanks for sharing.
No offence taken mate, we all have our own preference, I've had two softail slims with the stock bars being quite low and I couldn't stand them. I found them unbearable on long rides as my lower back and shoulders would get cramped. This set up is perfect for my height and reach and I can ride easily ride long distances without any back.or shoulder pain 👍
The Gingybeard Man yea I finally got it free, you sure do make this look easy bud...having the damnest time feeding these wires through the new bars...don’t want to have to de-pin them but I might have too
I just changed my bars out using you video. Hardest part for me was de pinning the connectors. You vid gave me the confidence to do it myself and saved me 1300 bucks. Thank you! 👍🏻

Thanks dude, gotta say I'm heaps happy with these bars 🤙
You’re a life saver man!
Cheers bro, glad it helped
Looks dope man,I like it
Great video! After riding with them, do you think a pull back riser would be better for comfort? Or do they set further back than the stock set up?
Thanks man, These bars are pretty close to being perfect for my reach and height however if I had my time again I would go with the lucky Dave's lucky 13 bars as they have a pullback. Also the biltwell gauge mount I purchased will fit those bars. These bars sit a little bit further forward than stock, but it's not too bad.

Hi. Cool vid 👌🏻
Do you know how much you can rise the stock bars with the original cables?
I'd say 10 inch bungking risers with these cr high bend bars are closest to it's limits without changing cables
Gran bella moto 🤙🏻🤙🏻
bike is looking great! I'm looking forward to putting these on my bike. I was curious about the angle of the digital display. Is it difficult to read now that its not pointed directly at you?
Yes mate for my height it is difficult to read the digital display. I'll do a review vid soon.
I like those bars
Looks badass bro
Club style
Thanks man, I'm in two minds of changing em out for softail breakout drag bars but IDK
The Gingybeard Man looks pretty sweet how they are now
I got the same bar setup! Rad bike man!
Yeah nice man, what do you think of em?
The Gingybeard Man love it! Might get a 1” pullback riser though. It’s never ending building these things!
@@anthonyfxbb9040 tell me about it man, half the fun in owning them is working on em 🤙
The Gingybeard Man amen to that!
Thanks for all the vids. And for naming the companies you get the parts from. One question, is it standard throttle or with wire?
The 2019 street bob runs throttle by wire 👍
which go pro mount is that one?
I was wondering if I even needed to buy brand new cables instead of just getting extenders but I switched my '19 fxbb to 18" inch apehangers so guess I need them. Thanks for the vid I may actually have the confidence to change them myself instead of paying Harley $800 just for labor haha

Did you use the stock throttle tube with your new grips? Got everything ready for my bar install but don’t know if I need a new throttle tube.
No mate you don't need to change the throttle tube 👍
I bought aftermarket bars for my 2018 Harley breakout, within days it moves forward and back, I use a rubber strip that worked for 2 days lol. What do you recommend? Oh I noticed no cruves/grip on the bars too
I used the lucky daves polyurethane bushings which worked well and stopped the back and forward movement.

Any riding reviews with these ?
Great video man! What size mounting bolts did you need for the bung king riser?
They were the mounting bolts out of the stock risers
@@TheGingybeardMan thank you for the reply!
Thanks for the video! With the risers, is the overall hight of bars higher than before?
Yes mate before the rise height was 12 inches now they're 13 inches
The Gingybeard Man Thanks mate!
Wondering why you didn't plumb the wires back through the upper triple clamp cutout? Was it a length issue on stock wires?
I didnt think id have enough wiring. But i ended up routing it through the triple tree and it worked. However the wiring is at its absolute limits
I Love it👍...Awesome😎
Hi, how do you do to get out all the wiring from the frame please? I'm stuck with this on my 2018 low rider... thanks
With the low rider You may need to lift your tank up by removing the front mounting bolt.

How’d you find the vision on your speedo with the stock gauges at the top of the risers? Thinking of going 8” risers & odi bars.
Vision with the gauge on top of the bars was not so good. I did a more recent video on my channel where I relocated the gauge on the bars.

Those bars are perfect. I’m looking to mount them down low. More of a classic naked bike height. How was running the wires? I’ve heard stories of people struggling to get the wires through the smaller openings in these. Might just be negative marketing by the Harley spare parts folks.
It is a little tricky to get the wiring through the bars. I only had to depin one of the clips on the right hand side controls to fit them through the bars. Otherwise if you're patient and have plenty of time it can be done without any issues.
Good to see people doing there own custom work, not hating on it at all in any way (the club style look is over done & certainly not my thing) but the wiring should have come down through your upper triple tree where it was stock
Was wondering how long it would take someone to realise how I run the wiring. The stock wiring is a bit too short with the 10 inch risers if you run it through the triple trees the way it was stock.
I personally havnt seen many club style harleys in Aus. As you can see I'm a huge fan of the style..... I guess that's all that matters though.
@@TheGingybeardMan hahaha yeah I am OCD when it comes to my cars n bikes especially so I notice things like that
There is tons of older Dyna Street Bob etc bikes done with the "club style" look in Aus & more & more of the M8's popping up, they all have something a bit different I guess but all the same visually really, I couldnt have that, im all about creating a different look & finding them different unique parts that nobody else has or has never even seen
1 thing I dont get though is the club style bar setup overall with 10" risers....sure it changes the look but the stock bars are around 10"-11" rise anyway so the actual rise is the same, it is now just limited to a tiny bit of adjustment rolling the MX shape bars forward & back a tiny bit, might change the overall feel a bit but the grips are around the same spot but the gauge setup has been messed with & moved up which leaves all the wiring hanging out & just seems pointless for no real actual gain
I had to roll the stock bars forward a tiny bit to make it comfy for me (5'11"), with your new setup it looks like the bars are back quite a bit now which might be fine for you I guess but it would be terrible for me
How does the new setup feel compared to the stock bars
Again as mentioned not hating on it I just dont get it
Hi, did you remove the battery before install? Thanks bro.
No I didn't remove the battery
bike looks great. im about to post my bike up made mine club style also
Sweet man, I'll check it out 👍
Nice job! Super helpful. All the stock harnesses worked except gauge obviously?
Yes sir, everything was stock except the speedo wiring
Sweet. I'm thinking of doing the same setup just keep going back and forth between the 10s and the 12s risers. How tall are you?
@@michaelprocopio8731 im 5'9"
How much slack was left? Could I put 12s on or is 10s the highest?
@@michaelprocopio8731 10" is definitely the highest risers. The over all height with the bars was 13 inches.
Which seat did you put on. Will put it on my softail standard 2020. Hope it will fit
Its a saddlemen step up seat
I’m having trouble getting the rubber guard back to fit back into the hole covering the wire harness any tips
I dnt have any tips really. You just got to make sure your wires aren't too tight otherwise it won't go back into place.
Hey man ,
Do you think i can fit a 12 inch t bar risers with stock cables ?
Unfortunately not man, 10 inches and the cables were at their limits.
HI there, What torque setting are used to snug handlebar bolts ( gauges, not risers) I would like push forward handlebar but not a clue what torque settings are. Thanks
Honestly mate I didn't use any torque settings. Tight is tight in my book.
Did you need to disconnect your battery before disconnecting the electrical? I’ve seen other videos where they said it threw some codes when they reconnected the electrical.
I didn't disconnect the battery and if you have any error codes there's loads of info on google as to how to clear them.
In addition to the panel cable, did you need to change any other cables?
No sir they were just long enough but pretty tight.
I am going to be putting on dominator industries MX 12" bars and I was told by a mechanic that when I reconnect the wires after installation that it would "throw a code" or an error message and maybe not be able to start the bike until the code is cleared, did you encounter this? This mechanic also told me this was a real hard job, I know you mentioned in the video that it took you some time but did you have any big issues other than threading wiring through the bars? thanks in advance, bike is looking awesome.
The hardest part is just running the wiring through the bars which isn't too bad if you're patient. After my bars were installed it did throw a code which was easily cleared. In a few of the comments I've attached a link which guides you through clearing the codes 👍
@@TheGingybeardMan thanks dude vids are awesome!
Hey bud, did you have to order new studs for the risers or did they come with?
I used the studs from the stock bars. The bunking risers dnt come with any.
Hi, nice video. I write you from Italy, you think it's possible to install a 12" t bar with stock cables?
The overall height of these bars is 13 inches, so yes you could install 12 inch t bats 👍
@@TheGingybeardMan thank you!
gracias! great step by step video.
I finished my install, my left housing switches aren't working, any advice?
Connector is ok, no visible damage.
You may have pinched the wiring inside the bars or the wiring which goes into the connectors may have come loose. Hope you can get it sorted out
@@TheGingybeardMan one of the pins at the male was bent, took me a while to rethink and check internally, but now all is OK! Keep up your great job with your videos.
@@luisprado439 good to hear you sorted it out mate 👍 thanks man, I'll keep the vids coming 🤙🤙
Overall bar height is 13 inches? Do you think you could have stretched those stock cables another inch?
No I dint think so, they were at their limits
For your CR high bend bars did you get Standard Throttle or Throttle By Wire?
Hey man, I used the stock throttle by wire.
The Gingybeard Man thanks!
@@petermhiingan115 no worries mate
Great vid 👍🏼
Thanks Peter
I saw how you said the cables are pretty much at their fully extended point. I just got 11” risers for my 2019 street bob. Do you know which harness extension/ digital gauge extension I should order?
@@peterganse I can't exactly remember the length of the extension I purchased but I believe it was the 6 inch one. Here's a link to the website guerrillacables.com/2018-2020-softail-street-bob-breakout-fxdr-fxst-speedo-harness/
@@TheGingybeardMan thanks brotha, you’ve been a great help! 🤘🏼
Hey mate
Putting new bars on my softail streetbob just wondering can u reuse the old grips on the new bars?
Mate I'm not 100% sure if the left grip is grip glued onto the bar. If it is glued then it'll be hard to remove. If you can get the left grip off without damaging it you should be good to reuse it 👍
The Gingybeard Man cheers mate. Champion
Keep the vids coming mate! Do u know of any good aftermarket sites for sissy bars?
@@chrismayberry7689 cheers mate, the only sissy bars I really like the look of, are the ones on Etsy. Just type in softail street bob sissy bar and a few will pop up from the same seller. They would be the only style of sissy bar I'd go with. For some reason I couldn't copy the link 😪
The Gingybeard Man nah all good mate thanks for ur help
Did the bushings come with the bar or riser? Or did you order them separately?
I had to buy them separately. They are from a different company called lucky Dave's.
@@TheGingybeardMan Thanks for the fast reply man, love your videos
@@zodiac3362 not a worry man, thanks for watching 👍
Hey man, did you go with any pull back, tried checking the comments to see if that had already been asked. I'm 5'10 but got t rex arms
No man I didn't go with any pullback. It felt like a perfect reach with the saddleman seat but with the whiplash slipstream seat I find I'm reaching a little more, but it's still not an issue.
@@TheGingybeardMan thanks for the quick reply
How tall are you and how’s the view of the speedo now? I keep going between the 10” and 8”.
I'm 5'9" I can see the speedo but in direct sunlight it's a bit hard to read. You can install the dominator industries guage mount on these bars if it's too much of a problem and install the bung king riser top clamp in place of the stock guage mount.
The Gingybeard Man thank you, bike is coming along beautifully and fuck any haters🤙🏼
@@kylealford3877 cheers bro, appreciate it
How did you get the fires to feed through the bars?
I de-pinned the wires and fed some small rope through the bars, then taped the wires to the rope and pulled the through.
hi man, i wanted to know if the original cables were long enough with a 14 "t bar from Lucky Dave's
You will need longer cables with 14 inch t-bars
@@TheGingybeardMan but not for a 13 "is that it?
@@toniotonio1853 the over all rise of these bars is 13 inches and they are extremely close to their limits. If You were to go with other t-bars which have a rise height of 13 inches make sure they arnt wider than these bars which are as wide as stock.
@@TheGingybeardMan Ok thanks man i appreciate your help 😉✌
How much taller is it compared to the stock bars?
Mate I believe the stock bar height is 11 inches and these bars give an overall rise of 13 inches
Did you have an extra cable coming off the bars?
Yes mate, I had one wire flat over. It had a black square connector and I think one wire going to it. I believe it's to fit aftermarket grip warmers
I think its a mistake to set the bars to your reach with elbows locked (full outstretch). If this is a little too obvious, forgive me. I find it rather helpful to maintain reach on both the grips and levers when steering the front wheel. As a matter of personal taste, I would settle for drag bars on this model bike and maybe score pullback risers with very little added height, just for some easier arm reach only. Thanks for sharing.
No offence taken mate, we all have our own preference, I've had two softail slims with the stock bars being quite low and I couldn't stand them. I found them unbearable on long rides as my lower back and shoulders would get cramped. This set up is perfect for my height and reach and I can ride easily ride long distances without any back.or shoulder pain 👍
How did you get the box with the wires free from underneath, there was an edit when you started
It just sits in there mate, comes out very easily
The Gingybeard Man yea I finally got it free, you sure do make this look easy bud...having the damnest time feeding these wires through the new bars...don’t want to have to de-pin them but I might have too
@@Haahhnn it is by far the hardest mod other than engine work to do to the bike. Its just so time consuming man. Take your time and be patient man
Did you use the stock upper clutch cable?
Sure did walt,
@@TheGingybeardMan Thanks. Good to know.
Where did you get the riser studs?
They're the ones from the stock bars mate 👍
Is
that a Memphis Gauntlet Fairing ?
Thanks
Richard
Yes it Sure is Richard 🤙
@@TheGingybeardManToo cool, just got a notion mine has just shipped.
What size cable did you order from guerrilla cables?
6 inches longer than stock
Thanks! I’ve watched all your videos! Keep them coming I’m learning a lot from them! Thank you!
@@TheDJMaddox87 will do brother, thanks for watching 👍
Not having to depin the wires is huge. At 9:00 you could’ve ran the wires through the top clamp hole as well.
hi where did u get the fairing from? in australia or somewhere else thanks you
I bought it from the memphis shades website in the U.S
@@TheGingybeardMan i tho they didn't ship it to Australia
@@tntzone3298 they did when I purchased. Check out there website.
