Default Burly question

Need to get Burly kit to do my bar change on my 2012 FB Lo. i've looked on their site but it doesn't say what cables are included. saw a kit on ebay but it didn't say it included the throttle cable, just brakes and clutch with wire extensions. Anyone know the correct kit for 18 inch bars with 2 inch risers

I've done several sets of apes with the Burly kit. The kit will come with everything you need to put on apes including heat shrink tubing.

If it were me I'd get your FB risers powder coated or buy new ones and keep the bars without a step. I think it's a little cleaner look honestly.

It looks clean with the step down and a 1 piece clamp.

Apes are suppose to use a 1 piece clamp or else the risers will break.

I thought so too, went without the step. That was my biggest concern with them, didn't want a gap on the edges

I don't need to learn to use google. How about you learn to provide an explanation when you post a dumbass comment?


The reason they break is because people aren't changing to new bushings when they install the new bars. It has nothing to do with the risers being used
