Hills is a great place to deal with, bought 2 complete sets, then parts to complete a bike I pieced together, very informative and helpful. Listen and pay attention to what they say about bleeding abs brakes you DO NOT!!! have to take it to the dealer to complete the task, I'm just an average mechanic and got it handled, Thanks Hills

I've found from the different bikes I've had is about 1 or 2 inches below shoulder height so your arm doesn't go numb and rain don't go up your sleeve.

I like the bars shown at the 27 second mark. I have a 2016 Road King Standard with factory 10” bars. Would like to have the bars higher maybe 14” and about two inches closer to me. Last is wrist angle. Like to have them close to 0 degrees. Nice video

With the fixed fairing I'm assuming the 12's are just above the fairing on the side. 10's are right even with the fairing mirrors and the 14's are right at stock bar mirror height.

I'm about to own my first Harley Davidson dyna glide 1997 model and very first ever motorcycle that I have ever owned. So with that being said, having starting out riding a 1430cc motorcycle for the first time riding a motorcycle is not going to be easy when I have to learn how to ride my bike and I'm use to riding dirt bikes and bicycles and mopeds and scooters etc and Tom I make the official trade for a dyna glide motorcycle and I'm searching for tips and info on everything I need to learn before I ride away in the wind.... Lol I'm super excited but I got many questions about Harley Davidson motorcycles and do you recommend anything for us beginning on Harley Davidsons. Who should I subscribe to and follow

What we need know also is slow turn mobility. What height does it start taking affect of your slow turns, if any. I've heard some say it's hard to turn especially with 16" bars.

+Carolina Rider it certainly does change it, but it’s not any harder, your still going slow. If anything, once you figure it out, it makes you a more confident rider. And that makes it even sweeter. Just my 2 cents.
