For the 08 and later tourers just a clutch cable pn#38649-08 which is the TLE +3 cable. For the pre 08's you should also get throttle/idle cables as the stockers are a bit sticky because of the tightness. Takes about 2-3 hours.

Default Khrome Werks sweepers!

Felt a pair today at a local chopper shop...way too expensive(the shop).
Spent a little while on the internet and paid $65 including shipping for the Khrome Werks Sweepers for FLH. I went with the standards because I didn't want to get into changing clutch cables and possibly other wiring.
I can't wait to feel comfortable wrist position on the most comfortable bike I have ever owned...except for the crappy factory bars!

Thanks Everybody! I will post after I get them installed!

I'm thinking the Monkey Bars I have ordered are going to straighten out my wrists. I've been using WO 517, but need a change.
