I am going to change the stock bars on my 07 Ultra. After reading all the posts on handlebars, I've decided on the Kromewerks Sweepers +2. Does anyone know the Drag Speciaties pn for the 300505's? DS has several bars and I'm not sure which one is the 505.
Also, I know I'll need a 3" longer clutch and new trottle/idle cables (not sure how much longer required). If you know the Drag Specialties pn's for those parts, I would appreciate your help.
These are the OE numbers for the HD parts that you would use. The throttle/idle cables are now obsolete, but you should be able to cross reference them in the back of a Drag book by pn#
Clutch=38649-07
Throttle=38650-98
Idle=56730-03
The throttle and idle cables can still be found at dealers on a parts locator for like $21 each. The -07 clutch cable from HD is like $80 though and is a lot more expensive than the pre 07's and 08 and up for some reason.
Is there a chance of changing bars without haveing to bleed the front brakes? I guess if you tried to without unhooking the brake line from the master cyl. it would be to difficult with all the wiring etc. I have a bar change coming also, just waiting on the clutch cable.
You don't have to bleed the brakes as you shouldn't have to remove the brake line. Just unhook the whole shabang and let it gently sit on a towel or something on top of the gas tank while you swap the bars.

That's what I was hoping but have never done a swap with all those dam wires inside the bars, guess I'll learn soon
