@jamespruitt9560 Год назад

Love the video have the same bike little tip. Remove the clutch cable from the clip inside the fairing and run it to the left said. No need for the extension. And when reinstalling tighten the 2 top bolts on the bracket for the handle bar clamps snug the bottom put the fairing back together electrical and all and you can set your bars with the fairing back on and using a ball end Allen key you can tighten the bottom bolts to spec and lock them where you want them.

I would like to say great video, I used this video to put bars on my 2021 flhxs. Worked like a charm. the hardest part was the fishing of the wires through the bars. i used the lube that you use for Running wires through conduit for your house instead of grease. worked great. instead of using the grips i opted for heated grips, all working now and i love it. thanks for the great video!

@ryansweb1067 Год назад

This was invaluable information. I took on the project of installing 12" bars on my 22 Ultra Limited. This video was step by step and saved me a ton of time. There are some wiring differences with the Ultra, and heated grips. Some plugs are the same so take pictures before you disconnect. Going just 2" taller than stock, I was able to reroute the clutch and brake lines and did not need the clutch cable extension. Over 2" would need either the clutch extension, or a longer cable and a longer brake line. Thanks for putting this video together, it was a great help.

Since I have 12's now I had to remove this plastic sheathe that was there. Any advice and/or picture of how you nestled the brake line/clutch line right under the stereo/key fob? Thanks soo much sir!

Good job. I’d add, the menu button doesn’t pop up. Put a little tension on it, then pull/slide it towards the end of the bar. I can see a lot of buttons becoming useless just pulling up.

@sledpusher 2 месяца назад

Couple things….great video. But never use an impact with Torx fasteners. You’ll learn after you do enough of them. Also, use a spray bottle with Dawn water mixed on the wire harnesses. A lot easier pulling/pushing through the bars.

@curtisfowles1101 Год назад

Excellent video, thanks for sharing! Question: I had a Harley dealer install 12" bars (Factory 47) on a 2021 SGS (I bought it out of state). They said they had to run a new clutch cable (full length). The cable they installed was too long and is coiled up in the fairing and sticks - found out when I got home. I want to replace the full length clutch cable with a single good quality cable. What is the new length I should buy? I looked and found inconsistent data on stock length. I measured with a string, best I could and found 74-76" to be the new length, but that is much longer than what Magnum says is stock +4. Magnum say it should be 70". I have a 70" cable and it looks too short when holding it up. I would like to only buy 1 cable if possible. Thanks in advance.

Hi if I a, only fitting 10” bars, do I still need a clutch cable extension, and if so where do I purchase one. I live in Australia, thanks

@deshkavb Год назад

nice job! I’m installing KST Patriot 12” bars. They are 1 1/2 “ thick and I’m having a problem fitting the fairing over them without grinding the lower part of the inner fairing. Now it looks like the ignition cover needs trimming too. Maybe I bought the wrong bars! If you could please share with me your thoughts!

@RideitWrenchit Год назад

Those 1 1/2" are going to be an issue with the fairing and ignition cover. The only thought I have is make sure the clutch and brake lines are secured to the bottom of the bars where they enter into the fairing area. There is a gap under the bars where the inner fairing and ignition cover come together that works well for routing those lines. This will create quite a bit more space around the rest of the handlebar to possibly accommodate the larger diameter without having to cut.

@billsteeves2974 7 месяцев назад

You dont have to do the clutch extension do you?

@kevinblair3939 2 года назад

This video has helped me to much but i cant figure out what to do with that rubber bar gripper, sorry dont know what to call it. its was on the original bars near the clamp. Do i just cut this off...I cant slide mine low enough to still use.

@RideitWrenchit 2 года назад

I finally cut it off carefully with a utility knife. It caused issues with getting the fairing to seat properly because of the larger diameter of the handlebars. You can then zip tie the clutch line in place to the riser bolt as was done at the factory.

Some people will tell you to cut the zip ties and the stock line will be ok. It can be done without changing it out but its awful tight. I had 10s on my 2015 and did not change the hydraulic clutch line and it was fine, barely. I would recommend changing the hydraulic clutch line. It's an easy swap and bleed.

Harley offers a clutch cable for touring models with sidecar. It’s +4” and typically half the price of the regular one. At least it was on my 2008. They won’t tell you that though.
