Default 13 FLHTK Chubby Bagger Bars install

Finally got the last piece to the puzzle, the bars arrived today!!


So.... I have
10" Wild1s black Chubby Bagger Bars
CVO Twist Grip Sensor
+4 Magnum black braided clutch cable
+4 Drag Specialties brake line. May not need, but wanted to have on hand.
Urethane riser bushings
Black clutch and brake levers.
And the correct Molex connector tool.


Now if the temps would get above freezing, so I don't break any brittle plastic pieces, I could get them swapped.


I am excited to get started!!!

Have fun and take your time. Make sure to cover your tank and front fender in case something drops!
Post up some pics when you're done.

Gonna probably remove the tank, and yeah that, cover everything well.


This will be my third set of Chubbys I have installed. Did 2 sets on 2 different Ultras for the Ex. Now it's my turn!!!

Well..... I am into my bar swap. Had to buy new heated grips today. The throttle grip was sticking, it must have been deformed from the heat. $290.00 later and all is well. Hopefully bars will be installed on bike tomorrow. Then clutch cable swap. I am waiting on iPod interface, decided might as well do that while the outer fairing was removed.
A $450.00 job has now turned into over $1,000 job. LOL

Don't forget to wedge the brake lever open. Those little switches are a biotch! ;-)
