Great video! I wish I would have seen it before I had my local dealer do my bars. They did not just replace the upper clutch cable half, but ordered a whole new "old" cable without the 2018 adjuster, so I had to pay for that plus a quart of Syn3 because they had to breech the transmission to install it, not to mention having to remove the lower half of the old one and reroute the new one! This seemed odd to me at the time because I thought the new cable was supposed to simplify handlebar jobs. I could have directed them to your video to see how it's supposed to be done. There were other problems with the job, too. If I lived near Chattahoochee, you would be doing all my work, that's for damned sure! Quality is such a very rare thing nowadays. I'm so glad to see it still survives in Columbus.

Nice handlebar install video, John. They look awesome too. I did notice that you struggled a little with pulling up the tag end of the electrical tape after pulling the wires through the bars. I am a retired commercial electrician and I have a tip for you that will make that part of the job much easier. When you wrap the tape the last thing you do is spin the tape roll two or three times to put a couple of twists in the tape before you break the tape from the roll. This gives you a small tail to grab onto to help with the unwrapping. Love your videos man.

Great vid! Quick "pro" tip for ya: When you blow your para-cord/ string through the bar (I only use para-cord because it's tough AF), if you tape off the holes at the opposite end (30 seconds of work), the string will blow right out of the centre hole and you won't have to fish for it. You might even be able to use the cheap electric tape for that! Keep the awesomeness coming!

Just picked up and it turns out they gave me a 1 piece clutch cable (I imagine this is like the cable off a twin cam model; says it fits my bike anyway). Should I live with this 1 piece cable or do you recommend hunting down a 2 piece to tie into stock cable? This is turning into a surprisingly difficult process and no one at 2 local harley dealers seem to be interested in helping! If you manage to read this thanks in advance, u the man.

Great video John, if only I had seen it before ordering the parts for my Sport Glide fiasco. Still in the middle of getting it straight, I ran into the the same issue with clutch cable you did. Looking up the parts, HD only gives part numbers for the 12-14" bars, nothing less than that. Plus their measuring system is faulty, as you discovered, the correct way to measure is the jacket length only. When I went to the local dealer to order the cable, I asked them if they had a chart with cable lengths and part numbers. They did not..... They claimed they did not have that info, yet the sheet with that info actually comes with each cable you order. Too bad it was way too long.. I actually believe the exact cable I need is the stock one for the Heritage, since they already come with taller bars than the SG. Then, on top of all that. I got the brake line, and it will not work because the connector is the opposite of what is actually needed.. WTF? I noticed you mentioned a brake line adapter, is that also needed? Naturally, the dealer had no clue, why do they do it that way? Why not just supply it with the correct fitting instead of making us buy a separate adapter? Wait, never mind, the answer is obvious.... Keep the very informative videos coming, we all greatly appreciate it!

Disc locks, fork locks, security system and siren doesn’t stop a few guys from picking it up and throwing it in a van! A security system with gps might help you recover it, though!

Hi John, I'm a big fan. Learned a lot from you! I have the same 2018 Heritage as you but the anniversary. If I go with your bars but 12 inch, would you say my stock clutch cable, brake and wires will fit? With this COVID stuff I have plenty of time to tackle this myself. Appreciate your insight. Thx, Norm

Take off windshield and bags. Slap on some big radius Vance and Hines pipes and she’ll look awesome.

Looking to do Yaffe 14 in monkey bars. Lots of people on the forums say I don’t have to extend anything. Also want to add heated grips. 2019 cvo road glide. Do you have any advice or recommendations? Thanks for all the great content. Best channel.

I’m putting 12” bars on my Road King. It only has 5k miles. Do you recommend replacing the bushings with polyurethane ones?

Great Video John! Goes into a lot more depth than other vid's out there. I want to mount a Sportster EFI tank onto my 2006 EFI Softail, have you got a video on this mod? I already have the tank, a genuine Harley 3.3 gal with the EFI fuel pump mounting hole. If I purchase a new Sportster 1200 fuel pump, will it do the job for me?

This of course brings up issues with removing the old speedo & dash panel. What items & how to replace them.

Hey John! Thanks for all the great content! I don't ride yet, but will here in the next year or so...I would love to see a review or comparison on the Daymaker 7in adaptive headlight vs the JW Speaker 7in adaptive. Just an idea for you on content, and I don't see that comparison anywhere on KZbin or web! Thanks for the tech stuff! Love it!

Is that company Dominator? I'm having a hell of a time getting the wires through mine.
