Thinking of putting Paul Yaffe 1 1/4" Monkey Bars on a '17 Road Glide Special. Wondering if they will go on with the stock configuration of if there's other parts needed to complete install i.e risers, clamps, etc. Any info is appreciated.
I put on the 14" KST Kustoms Renegades which are a 1 1/4" with all stock wires and hydraulic lines. Nothing extra to buy to make it fit my 17 RGS. About $250 delivered from Dennis Kirt. I almost got the Factory 47 in the 14" and those also install with stock lines..They have a great install video on youtube:

This is what I used if you have to extend your wires: wire kit #69200034. The kit was plug and play, no splicing and all wires were same color code.
Buszzbait, did you have to do any changes to risers with the KST bars?
No changes to risers at all. The only modification you would need to do is they don't have a hole on the bars where the controls go so you will need to grind out the tab inside of the clutch and brake control. https://youtu.be/Re3vViyB_Lg..it will show it on here.
