Default 2013 Street Bob w/ 12" Nash Gimps

Hey guys, I just finished installing a pair of 12" Gimps and wanted to share how it went.

Stock bars


12" Gimps



The wiring on the 2013 Street Bob is different than my 2011 was, the harnesses are way smaller and do not require taking them apart to run the wires internally which saves a ton of time.

I put a little strip of Tac Tape to help keep the bars in place since they are not knurled.



New bars and levers installed



Another angle



Anyone wanting to install bars, dont worry about it, its very easy and only took me about an hour. Hope you guys dig the bars, so far they seem really comfortable.

Bars look great. Thinking about changing mine out. How did you deal with the internal wires?

Just ran them through, there is a small hole drilled I n the bottom of each side of the bars, I used a small allan key to help guid the harness through the bottom were the bars have that major L in them. Worked just fine *** problems. Takes patients and going slow
