Default Handlebar Exchange???

I have a 09 Street Glide & am going to change the handlebars with 2" pullbacks. Anyone point me to a link as to help me? I have a service manual & instructions for HD. Any hints to make things easier? What to do or not to do? Thanks for any advice except take it to the Stealer.

If you have the service manual, then you should be good to go. The manual covers it very well. The swap is pretty straight forward.

Khrome Werks + 2" Sweepers. I'm installing my 2nd set tonite on my own bike. Wife got the 1st set. Their website will give you the part # for the 4" over clutch cable needed to do the job right. Fairly easy install on an 09 because you only have to pull off a heat shield instead of the entire exhaust (on 08 and earlier years) to get to the clutch release cover. Do a search on the forum. Lots of good reviews.

Got done. Took about 4 hours. Not to bad a friend helped me. Went over to his garage, he sells tools for a living so I knew he would have anyone we needed. With the 2" pullbacks you don't have to change any cables. I relocated the Clutch cable but I don't think I even had to do that. I found that plug inside the handlebars for the Fly By Wire. Makes it easy to disconnect & run through the new bars. It is a little orange connector. Just pull the FBW from the throttle as far as you can you will see it.
Makes a big difference riding for me. I can sit up straight now.

THANKS FOR THE HELP
