Have a quick question that requires board expertise. I have a set of Apes for sale in the for sale section that are for a TBW bike. I have been talking to a guy that has the push pull system. Can anyone confirm if it would be ok to install these bars on his bike? I figured that sliding on his throttle body, or possibly even cutting out the notches in the throttle side bar and it would be a simple hack. Are there any other issues that might arise on this install?

You can buy a plug for the tbw side so the bars can be ran with or without tbw. Some bars will work without the tbw plug.

 

I have yaffe bagger apes, they are made for TBW bikes but work on my push pull bike.

 

The Harley mini-apes I just installed yesterday on my non TBW FatBoy had the TBW cuts in the end of the bar. The bars should have holes for internal wiring. When I installed the WO chubbys on my Limited, I was able to run the wiring outside the bar as well, so I don't really think it's an issue

 

OK thanks for confirming my thoughts guys.

I put throttle buy wire Khrome Werks 2+2 wide sweepers on my wife's throttle buy cable bike this spring. I didn't use a filler plug for the slot. I just slid the grip on the bar and I works just fine.
