Motorcycle Repair: Harley custom bars, clutch side, harley softail


Question
I have a 04 harley softail, nighttrain. I want to install a set of t-bars with the integrated risers. I am unsure of all of the steps. Is there a manual for this? or can you tell me the step by step process?

Answer
First, you need to remove the controls from the old handlebars. Look at he controls and you will see screws which hold them on. Remove them and slide them off. Just gently lay them aside. You will have to get some new grips, as the clutch side grip is glued on from the factory. Now, look at the bottom of the risers under the triple trees. You will see a bolt which holds them on. Remove the bolts ans slide the risers out of the triple trees. Install the new bars in the triple trees. Then install the controls back.
If you run into problems let me know.
Good luck and happy riding
