Default Ape hangers installed & more !

Hey!

I just got my Burly 14'' Ape installed with the Burly extended cable kit . Very nice kit they do and good quality ... I also chopped my rear fender since here in Canada our rear fender is really ugly compared to the US one .
Im now waiting for my gas tank lift , coil relocation kit , blinker relocation kit .

Theres only one thing Im worrying right now is my check engine light is on...
I know I lost a little bit of clutch oil ... maybe 150-200 ml and I will add some before I use my bike again , yes I will add some and not change it since my bike got less than 100km on it . I also disconnected / reconnected the Master fuse and my alarm system triggered . I also had to take off and reinstall my air cleaner . Does anyone know what could have happenned , why my check engine is on ? could it be the clutch oil ? So far I have tested my clutch ajustement and it feels like before .

Im just gonna let a pick of my new setup down there so you guys can tell me your thoughts . Im also looking for spocket mags in Canada if you have some for sale .

Thanks all for the help & support you guys have provided to me on the forum , this is my first bike and I never modified any before too ! Thanks !

No idea on your check engine light, but it looks great! I am soon going to tackle my bike with 14" bars and the burly 14" kit. How did you find the install to be?

I have basic mechanic knowledge and it was pretty easy . The only part I struggled was taking off the clutch cable . If you have any question , you can ask me anytime !!

thanks!
the shop is an independent bike shop here on long island called north shore cycles. they do excellent work. i'm not allowed to touch any tools anymore because when I have made the attempt to wrench, it always cost me more money, and more work for my friends lol. so as a tradeoff, they work on my bike, I fillet the fish we catch, and cook at the bbq's lol
the pipes are S&S performance exhaust
