Hey guys
I'm planning on changing my bars and was looking at the
Carlini Super Sweeps with 7" risers. Not sure if the 7" will
let me keep my stock cables or will I have to go to the 9"
risers. Or perhaps the 5" will be fine. You see my confusion [&:]...
Any feedback please. Thanks in advance.
Me again
I think I'm going to go with the clean sweep instead. But
would still like some feedback on the hight of the risers.
5", 7", or 9". I'm pulling towards the 7".
With the super sweeps you have to go with the 9" rise or you will have problems with the bars hitting the tank.
I talked to the owner(?)/tech support at Carlini (he also has a Deuce with these bars), he said the best bars for the Deuce are the clean sweep with the the 7" rise. I bought that style (not mounted yet) the riser bolts and wire cover. You will also have to buy shorter cables, he said the stock cable length is 2-3" toolong with these bars.
I havent had a chance to do anything yet with the new bars (snowmobile season is here)
Hey Bigelow,
tks for the reply. I would appreciate any other info on the bag
Size.
Part # or any other pictures.
I have to import it, so want to make sure it's right 1st,
Cheers and thanks. Percy-Zn
Well here's the skinny!!
Did like you told me Voodoo and gave Carlini a "buzz".
After describing my bike to the tech. He told me since I
have the Heartland kit which sits me 2 inches lower and
2 inches more to the rear that I would be better off with
the 9" riseSuper Sweeps. Also I'm 5'9" with short arms
and long legs.[8D]So the bars will be coming to me more
than if I went with the Clean Sweeps. Like Red Deuce said
I will be able to keep my stock cable lentgh. So in conclusion
it's going to be the 9" rise SuperSweeps 1 1/2. Can't wait
to get them...
Way to go CC - it's always fun after a decision has been made, of course now the damn (seemingly) never ending wait for the parts to arrive begins. Looking forward to seeing the results.
