Default Adjusting handle bars????

Is there a way to adjust my handle bars without taking the radio and everything apart in the fairing on my Ultra?

When you find a way.....let me know.....

I am in need of adjusting mine too, but just not in the mood to remove all the fairing stuff.

You can get to the bottom bolts if you remove the switch panel.

I've looked through my service manual and it doesn't directly discuss adjusting the handlebars! Obviously they are OK as they come out of the factory....

If you don't have one, get a service manual. At least if you have to dig through the contents of your fairing you will have a hope of getting it back together again!

Best of luck.

Couple of years ago...I had to replace the handle bar riser bushings. I put it all back together. At the time and in the shop, the bar felt right. Since then, I've ridden a few other Electra Glides....my bars are definately not quiet adjusted where I want them. I just wish there was an easier way to adjust them without taking all that crap off.
