Thats a beautiful bike man. I called that dealer and was told they just received a deposit on it. Good luck with it and enjoy
Wanted this bike since I saw it in 2009. Dealer got one in and gave me a killer deal. Only had 8100 miles on it. Still want to add apes and DandD exhaust. Love the Springer ride.[/QUOTE]
Im new to the forums and new to owning a springer type bike. I just picked up a 2008 Crossbones and I want to start doing different things to it. Im looking into the bars I posted below:
How is the process of changing the bars? Are these able to work on that bike? Is there a thread already breaking down this process with pictures? Any advice and knowledge is appreciated. Thanks everyone!
Welcome to the forums. You should introduce yourself in the new members section . No they wont work. You need to shop bars specifically for Springers. Centers of attachment are different. And method of attachment is different.
If your mechanically inclined not a hard job. Do yourself a favor and buy a Harley service manual. Buy a Harley manual,expensive, not a Clymer,junk .If you do your own work between that and whats available on Utube and other sites you should be able to do most anything. G.
