Wow, that guy is a bit of a 'sky if falling' type... the lines absolutely dont HAVE to run 'in flow' with the bars... BUT I wouldnt even consider leaving an install with zero slack in the lines... I am glad I watched this, makes me want 12" over the 14" just to avoid any issues. I just cant seen to find anyone with vanguard 14's on a streetglide that has any evidence online of it working out perfectly.

Sounds pretty sketchy, think I will pass.

There are install videos on the KST web site for different models and years RG, SG they should help you out.

I know this is an older thread but can someone chime in with how the pullback is on these? I know they are fully adjustable but at some point they will lose their comfort. Like my apes that I have but I really love the look of thos spearheads. Anyone have them on a roadglide? I want to try them but that's a bit of coin to roll the dice on. Current bars are nice but they just dont have enough pull for slow speed maneuvers in my opinion. Any info is greatly appreciated.
