please send me the instructions, I got my bars coming. randy.myers@gmail.com.
Thanks!
Thanks!
I'm going with the 10" bagger bars. Could I get the instructions too please? I read all 60 pages. Probably half of those are just asking for the instructions. It would have been nice not to have to do that, but it's small price to pay for all the great advice.
Thanks in advance

I would also like a copy of the instructions.

I had mine installed by a local independent shop last year. A couple months ago my headlight stopped working -- only the high beam would work. After weeks of diagnosis and trying to figure out the problem it was determined to be shorts in the wiring in the bars. Since they had installed the bars they didn't charge me for the repair work, but it's still not right. The low beam works find now, but the high beam goes out intermitently, along with the left turn signal. Obviously there's still a short in there someplace. I think I'll be redoing the whole left side this winter -- sooner if the problem worsens. I'm thinking I'll try doing it myself and just take my time.
The challenge, as you all know, is the corners. They are pretty jagged inside my bars and the wires seem to snag or something. Quite the frustration.

Hello,
That would always be a problem when pulling wires thru a bar or anything with sharp corners. I work with fiber at work so I understand this headache.
What I did on my bars (different company) and what we do at work is use tech flex and either run the whole cable length or just around the bends in the pipe to protect it.
I did it on my handle bars and had no problems. Granted it made pulling it a little more fun but it protects the wiring and would go thru the headache again.
