Good job man! I am stoked for you and good for you for pushing yourself in regards to what you thought you were capable of handling mechanical wise.
Bike looks killer - and an official welcome to the Outlawz club lol
(I know you love that front fender but I stil think it looked better without )
Now go ride the chit outa that sled and then tonight celebrate with a few well deserved beers (I know I'm gonna drink some for ya lol)

Good job - bike looks real nice with new bars - apes really change the look! I have changed bars several times, but finally ordered some apes and can't wait to get them on bike. Bars were delivered last week, but they were not the right ones so I have to wait another week for bars to get fabbed and chromed.

Yea, I rolled them apes forward....not as far as my other ones though because the pull back is different....but must more comfortable hand placement. They are also at least 2" taller because my hands are higher than they were. Can't wait to ride this weekend!

Looks good. It is unlikely that they will just fail if not properly bled. If you have that much tightness now, it would just start getting real mushy first.
Here is a trick I learned on these forums from other mechanics. Leave the bike in parked position and tie the brake to the grip overnight. This allows any air bubbles to come up due to gravity. I did it and the next morning it was even more tight with good pressure. With ape bars it really elevates pretty high so I know it worked for mine.

That's what I did.
Air gravitates up into the MC as a bubble. If you have enough air I suppose you would want to look in MC and pop them. I didn't do that though. Probably only had minimal.
No opening bleeder valve in morning. Just untie and try squeeze again and it might be tighter.
when you squeeze lever it opens up the MC and air finds it's way up and out the resevoir if there is only little air bubbles. Not sure if there are a lot on how much will air out. Just leave on as long as you can overnight. See how it goes.
