You’re Buddy knows his way around a bike. What an asset! You owe him one. Nice work!

[@cutterslade447]

Love those new bars, exactly what I was looking for, for my ride. Thank you!

[@bobsaget3874]

cool video man, i bought the same model back in 2019 as well. good to see how different bars look on the same bike.

[@TunaNoCrusT.T]

Great video Greg! Keep making videos man!

[@marioquesada8807]

Awesome setup Bro, good inspiration for my Nightster

[@twinsmotogarage1866]

Awesome that you had a friend to help out. I did this recently myself and it was quite challenging. I'll be posting the video soon.

[@2WheeledFilms]

Yeah, let me tell you if I was to have to do it alone it would not have gone well. He had done it on 2 other Harleys so he was quite knowledgeable on how it was done! Awesome I will be sure to check your video out!

@@2WheeledFilms hi Greg I have a 2020 sportster 1200 you mentioned you didn't need any extra cables for the bike will I be in luck with my 2020 also the tank lift i dont really need that do i please sir can you email me back with your answers i would really like to hear back from you this means alot to me because harley wants 900$ cash for this job thanks a lot.

[@NorthernGrowsUk]

Love your bike. Its a similar colour to my sportster and I'm looking to change drag bars to the same apes you chose

[@Triple4Motovlog]

Aspiring Pinoy Motovlogger from Singapore here... New friend here... nice you got friend that willing to help and got knowledge in bikes. Good to see friends helping each other. Ride safe mate... see you

[@JohnstuhDeMonstuh]

Thanks for The Great Video. I Just Got Mine and Installed Them. They Look Great. Great Job Bro. and Just For The Record in Case anyone is Hesitant Because of The Wires. it Only Took Me Like 5 Minutes to Run Mine Through.

[@TexasDucks]

How did you get your original brake line to fit? I bought the same bars for my 2020 iron 1200 and it won’t reach.

[@joeyornelas]

Absolutely love how these bars look. I have them in my cart from the road6 website, but I'm stuck between the 12 inch and the 14. I want to throw them on my 2022 Sportster 48. I'm also 5'6, not sure if the 14's would be too tall or just right.

[@uahassle]

5 foot six as well and I got a iron 1200 I’m considering putting the 14s on. What did you end up doing and how did it fit you?

[@robertadkins4466]

Dude if you still have the 10 inch bars I'll take them . I could definitely use them... the new ones look sweet by the way.

[@jerryh2954]

The bars look good on that bike. Very Nice!

[@jayteesgear]

Dude i liked the og bars and these new ones look killer too! Niice

[@jeffdutill7638]

road with these bars for years 18"s i loved them

[@Vincentong70]

Greg, What is the color of your handle? Flat Black or Glossy Black?

[@PhillipAndWorld]

Nice video! Those brass caps look kind of gold! do you think they would match thrashin supply militant pegs in gold?

[@2WheeledFilms]

I think they would be close, I don't know if it will be exact

[@juniorcarrillo3196]

Looks amazing. Did you have to change any of the cables? Clutch, brake, throttle?

[@2WheeledFilms]

No sir! All stock cables fit.. just had to cut back the tape around d the wire harness under the tank to get a few extra inches!

[@juniorcarrillo3196]

Greg Kirk, thanks for the info, greatly appreciated.

[@boengel5342]

Why do the old bars look bent lol looks like the left is lower then the right.

[@Limestone_ScaleRC]

I’m diggin these bars... been eyeing them for a while cuz they’re selling the 16s with extended cables and wires for $350 rn. Do you know if they’re American made? I couldn’t find that info in my research.

[@2WheeledFilms]

They are made in the USA!

[@anthonyfiliceiii4887]

You didn't have to do an ignition relocation for the instal, did you? Wondering if I can put the same bars on my bike without ignition relocation.

[@justingillis6150]

just another mod for sportster...looks good.

[@mrrebuilt4127]

I like the way it came out 🤙🏽

[@jaydengonzales5792]

Looks killer bro what brand grips are those ? Also what music did u use in the background?

[@2WheeledFilms]

Jayden Gonzales they are just some MX Renthal grips. There is a link to them in the description

[@herbertdavis82]

Love the music , nice bike too

[@yanmandude]

Your video helped me a lot. I got the exact same bike and colour and I want to do the exact same mods. Do you think that you could go even at 16 inches regarding wires and clutch/brake cables? What is your height and how far up are your fists compared to your shoulders. Thank you.

[@2WheeledFilms]

john matzik I don’t think that you will be able to internally wire 16 inch bars with the stock cabling. My hands are at just about shoulder height and are very comfortable

[@yanmandude]

@@2WheeledFilms thanks for your reply. And how tall are you? I am 1.70cm, I think that is 5.7feet

[@2WheeledFilms]

john matzik I am 5’10” which I think is like 177 cm. Also you can run 16” bars with the stock cables just can’t internally wire them

[@yanmandude]

@@2WheeledFilms Thank you so much for this valuable info :) My best wishes for a Happy 2020. Cheers.

[@glock8885]

Where did you get the gold plugs you used for the handlebars? I love the way they make it pop. Do they come in different colors as well?

[@2WheeledFilms]

They were a selection that you could make on the Road 6 website when buying the bars

[@carolinasrt4163]

Was you able to use stock wires an lines on the bars

[@2WheeledFilms]

Carolina Srt4 yes, stock cables were able to be internally wired through the new bars

[@Haviifxlrs]

Looks cool man

[@Madcatdave]

What saddlebag do you have on your bike?? Looks like it would fit my 1200c perfectly.

[@2WheeledFilms]

Its the Harley Davidson Single-Sided Swingarm Bag www.harley-davidson.com/us/en/shop/single-sided-swingarm-bag/p/90201326A

@@2WheeledFilms thanks. :)

[@efraingonzalez2670]

If you put those handlebars on your own or in a different shop and you currently have warranty on the bike does that void my warranty ?

[@2WheeledFilms]

No it doesn’t!

[@ObliviousArt]

Looks 🔥🔥🔥

[@craigmohyde4289]

Did you have to get longer throttle cables?

[@2WheeledFilms]

Nope, the stock throttle cables fit just fine

[@MadebyAmerica1981]

Are those the 10 or 12? Im researching if I need the conversion kit for the 10” bars.

[@2WheeledFilms]

They are 14"

[@Oldschoolwayz1]

Where did you get the bag. Nice video and bike brother

[@2WheeledFilms]

Thanks my guy, it is a swingarm bag right from Harley Davidson

[@manuelcruzorozco7705]

Hi Grettings from Mexico I have the Same Model how tall are those new Bars?

[@denyspoyner4150]

14 inch. 6.5 inch pullback, 31 inch tip to tip, Bottom tube width is 9.5" store.road6customs.com/14-Ape-Hangers-narrow-bottom-HOLEY-ROLLER-BARS-r6c0004.htm

[@coachsalling]

Your original bars were 8" and you didn't need any kind of wire extensions to go to 14"? I have been looking at those same exact bars from road6customs for my Iron883. Just hate to double the price by having to buy a cable kit.

[@2WheeledFilms]

Handlebars on the Iron 1200 are 10" mini apes. I did not have to get any wire or cable extensions. When doing the tank lift I just peeled back some of the black tape on the stock wiring harness and I was able to gain a few more inches.

[@michaelbillstrom170]

Stalls i put 14” bars on my iron 883 and you can get away with only changing the clutch cable and brake line. I was able to make it work with stock throttle cables and wires. If you want to rout your wires through the bars then you will need extensions which i plan on doing at some point. Im not sure about the front turn signals because i have mine mounted on my triple tree.

[@coachsalling]

Michael Billstrom Thanks for that input on the wires! Ok polyurethane bushings are needed?

[@trevorharmer1783]

You used all stock cables and stock brake hose ? I have a 2021 with stock minis on it now will I need the burly cable kit

Are those the powder coated or gloss bars?

[@david93perez]

You didn’t have to buy new cables or wires? Is there enough slack?

[@2WheeledFilms]

There was enough slack, needed to cut some of the wrap around the wiring harness under the tank to get enough, but it all worked out great!

Lucky bastard. Wish I had a buddy that knew what the hell they was doing with handle bar changes. Everyone I know are like me, don't want to blow a lot of money on cable the may or may not be wrong. Guess I'm just going to have to keep my eye out. See a fellow biker that got a handlebar change and say "Hey you do that yourself?" " You did!?" "Um you like free beer and Barbecue?" lol.

[@rogerflores6867]

You didn't put back on the blinkers?

Didn’t put them on because I didn’t want them on the bars. I ordered a relocation kit so they went on the forks.
