I put the harley fat apes on mine. - I was able to use the stock lines with som modifications on the brake side. I had to un bolt the union from the frame and raise it. Clutch side just needed some re routing. But you have to extend the wiring, I used the HD extension kit.
Yo might want to put the seat on first before you choose a size of bars. What feels right with the stock set will feel low on the tall boy.
Congrats on the new bike!
Lol, thanks! If you scroll up to the post right above yours, you'll see I installed the Factory 47 12" bars already. But thanks for the advice. I don't think I'll be needing the tallboy on this bike. The seat position is higher then my Dyna, and I am in a pretty comfortable position. I'll probably be looking for a more comfortable seat, but don't think I'll need higher.
Ordered a chrome cover for a ventilator air cleaner I have (in black) and am ordering a Long ride shield tomorrow. Getting the thresher in 14" based on measurements taken earlier.
All that'll be left is are the pipes and a dyno tune. ("All"... yeah, right...)
