Has anyone got a Lindby Linbar for their '14+ Street Glides? I've been wanting to get one (#BL102-1/09) but thought I read that there were issues with mounting them on the Rushmore bikes. Lindby's website is showing they fit '97-'15 models. Looking at HD engine guards, the fit is from '09-'15 which makes sense because I think it was in '09 HD updated the touring frames.
I ended up ordering a Linbar this morning. It's getting shipped cross country. I'll post up some pics next week once I get it installed. Can't wait. Now if only the weather would warm up!
I am the one that posted on the Lindby Magnum Bar and it didn't fit my 2014 Street Glide
Lindby told me to bend bar to fit, have you seen how thick that bar is ?The mounting holes didn't line up with bike frame and had a wide gap between bar and frame and I wasn't going to force to fit. I returned it and bought Harley bar and it installed no problems. I wouldn't buy Lindby but that's just my two cents.

I put a Linbar on my '14 FLHX. One of the best mods I had done.
The Linbar does interfere with my feet on the floorboard to gearshift, like I don't have the room that I had, same on the brake side. I took some pieces of steel and made some brackets to move the Linbar out an inch for more room. I am tall, 6'3", maybe that was the problem.
I have since put Accutronix forwards on the bike. I am wondering if I need the Linbar now.
It feels like a more comfortable riding position, being in a "relaxed and semi reclined" state with the forwards. Seems like better control of the bike, too.
Have taken one 400+ mile trip since install. Will have to ride longer or more till I see if I need the Linbar.

I definitely want to see it when you get it put on. I can't find hardly any pics of the bar on a Rushmore bike.
