I’ve been thinking about going from the stock bars to taller ones on my RG. Well thanks to you video and seeing the difference I’m gonna do it. Awesome video, keep them up and thanks for the inspiration. Be safe
Great Video!! What is the part number from Custom Dynamics for the tail light upgrade you mentioned? Rear turn signals double as running and break lights.
JC Oliva yeah- I was looking for Harley part - but the idiots at dealership didn’t know what part will work on my bike and refused to accept a return if I opened the item . What poor customer support....
Yes sir ! More wind on my hands due to less protection from batwing fairing...10 inch rise will be the highest you can go and still have wind protection for your hands...
I realize this is a 2 yr old video, just wondering if the fairing offers any wind protection for your hands with the 12 inch bars. Mainly for highway speeds (NJ Rt 78) in winter temperatures.
I AM SANDY Thank you! Feel free to check out my setup on my videos on my channel , i just do it for fun but I use GoPro Max and want a better option to get full view shots
I was wondering the same. Glad a went thorough the comments before I asked lol. I’m 5’10” and was on the fence wether I was gonna do 10s or 12s? I think I’m gonna have to go with 12s after this. 👍🏼
Yeah Sandy bars look bad ass! And they make the bike look so much better, I have an o5 deluxe CHOLO’ed out &/had those bars loved them, eventually sold them & replaced them with 14” Carlini menace apes! Now my 17 RGS came with stock bars & I hate it, make my arms get soar at my elbows, taller bars are in order!
Me too. I got my 12” mayhems. I am installing them today. I wanted to go with the 14” but I didn’t want to be way above the fairing. So I also got a drag specialties low profile seat to lower me down.
Really enjoy your videos. The triple play is a reasonably affordable modification that pays huge dividends! See what I did there? Hehe.. anyway love the bars and the new kicks! Have fun and ride safe!
Sandy, great video! I’ve been on the fence on getting the 12inch and your video might have been what I needed. I have to figure out a different solution for my mirrors though, I have a 2020 CVO with mirrors on fairing. Does it feel very different to ride compared to stock? Worried about control, feels like it will be harder to ride?
Fly & Ride - once you’re riding it’s really nice and comfortable. Only thing that requires a bit getting used to is at very slow speed when pushing the bike around with your feet in getting in and out of parking spaces - you need to be closer to the tank to reach out to the far out hand.....
Thanks for the vid. I’ve just ordered the 14” meathook apes from KST. Can you give me a ballpark figure on what you think it should cost me for the install? Thanks
I'm only 5'5" and have been debating between 12" and 14". My heritage had 10" mini apes, but I have the same ride posture as your old bars, indeed some thing taller
Have the same bars on 2016 street Glide, love them . Hey sandy don’t make the same mistake John made and trade in the Harley . God Bless him but those bikes are made for the young crowd. He’ll regret it after a three hour ride .
Great call on Silver buddy 😂 22 months later and you would have lost money if you took his advice. Stick to talking about motorcycles, not giving investment advice. Besides that the video was awesome, I have been looking at doing bars as well.
New bars sets your posture to the correct position. Thanks for the brake light idea looks like something I would do.
I’m 6’0” and my bike already had 14” bars when I got it. Wish they were 12” but it’s comfortable enough.
You may just be my new favorite motovlogger bud. Much love from over the bridge.
👍🏻 😆 LOL 👍🏻 - thanks for the kind words... stay safe
Good video I’m thinking of 10” same bars not sure I like Ny hands above the fairing not sure yet I got a 21 ultra limited
They seem great on a long trip, but ripping through the twistes I think not so much.
I’ve been thinking about going from the stock bars to taller ones on my RG. Well thanks to you video and seeing the difference I’m gonna do it. Awesome video, keep them up and thanks for the inspiration. Be safe
Thanks buddy...
It’s been a year so are you still happy with the bars and still recommend them? I just bought an 09 Ultra Classic and looking at these.
Great Video!! What is the part number from Custom Dynamics for the tail light upgrade you mentioned? Rear turn signals double as running and break lights.
Where do you buy gold and silver? Is apmex a good place? I think that's what it's called
Miles Franklin - look them up
Thank You, Thank You! This is exactly what I needed. Trying to decide between Harley Fuzed, KST Mayhem, and LA Choppers. Great Video!
Sure buddy, you’re welcome
Just ordered these same bars for my '13 ultra limited. Can't wait to throw these bad boys on there!
Very comfortable
Great looking bars sandy I have them same riding kicks they are very comfortable & lightweight have a safe ride
Mike Martin sr thanks- I’m enjoying them already- very light
I like the helmet sandy where did you purchase it?
Glad you were able to get that brake light figured out. You can't go wrong with Custom Dynamics
JC Oliva yeah- I was looking for Harley part - but the idiots at dealership didn’t know what part will work on my bike and refused to accept a return if I opened the item . What poor customer support....
@@HOLYSHIFT I found that Custom Dynamics is better than HD anyway. Plus they have great customer service.
Greetings from Switzerland!! Nice video and I am happy to feel you happy
Very well done!👍
How much more wind are you getting on your hands? Did you lose the protection of the fairing with those bars?
Yes sir ! More wind on my hands due to less protection from batwing fairing...10 inch rise will be the highest you can go and still have wind protection for your hands...
I realize this is a 2 yr old video, just wondering if the fairing offers any wind protection for your hands with the 12 inch bars. Mainly for highway speeds (NJ Rt 78) in winter temperatures.
No it doesn’t
10” will give protection though
@@HOLYSHIFT Thanks!
Also, can you share the link to the riding stick you use for your 360 camera? How do you hook it up? Thanks!
Fly & Ride I’ll put out a video in the next few days showing my set up
I AM SANDY Thank you! Feel free to check out my setup on my videos on my channel , i just do it for fun but I use GoPro Max and want a better option to get full view shots
just put a link below description for selfie stick
great video Sandy thanks. I know this is old and they probably don't make them anymore but what brand are the shoes?
Bilt riding sneakers- there’s a link to the item below my video in the description section
Hey Sandy, I'm looking to upgrade my bars, did you have to change the brake and clutch cables I have the same bike.
No need for brake and clutch cable replacement- it fits original
@@HOLYSHIFT I forgot to ask, did you need wier extensions
@@robertogonzalez6971 - yes you need electrical wire extension for the throttle by wire . I bought it with the bars...
D/id I miss it…. You kept saying how is your posture. What about how is the difference… better or worse?
Better, much better
wondering how tall are you. I'm 5'8 and thinking about getting the 10" kst bars but the 12" looks good on your bike
I’m 5’9” -5’10”
I was wondering the same. Glad a went thorough the comments before I asked lol.
I’m 5’10” and was on the fence wether I was gonna do 10s or 12s? I think I’m gonna have to go with 12s after this. 👍🏼
Came here to check out those bars, but I also want to know what you used to place your phone where it is in this vid. Thanks!
Where did you get the red tank decal? Just bought a 2020 slim and hate the emblem.
The red emblem is painted on - stock on the Electra glide standard 2019-2020
How tall are you ....trying to decide 12 or 14 inch bars
5’9”-5’10’
What type of helmet do you wear? And if I may ask where did you purchase it?
Yeah Sandy bars look bad ass! And they make the bike look so much better, I have an o5 deluxe CHOLO’ed out &/had those bars loved them, eventually sold them & replaced them with 14” Carlini menace apes! Now my 17 RGS came with stock bars & I hate it, make my arms get soar at my elbows, taller bars are in order!
That’s the way to go... taller bars make such a difference in ride comfort- and better looks!
What brand of helmet are you wearing in this video? Thanks in advance
I’m trying to get these and in 12” black as well. How much in all did this cost? I’ve been priced $800.00 for bars and installation everything.
That sounds somewhere in the ball park. 👍🏻
So now that you've had the new bars for a while, do you still like them? Or would you rather something else?
Kurt H. Yeah I got used to the riding position - more relaxed. I like them.
im debating on getting bars as well im 6ft 2 and the stock bars isnt the best
Me too. I got my 12” mayhems. I am installing them today. I wanted to go with the 14” but I didn’t want to be way above the fairing. So I also got a drag specialties low profile seat to lower me down.
What helmet are you wearing in this video?
Just upgraded to 12s myself. What type of helmet is that?
Nice Bergen County ride through! Who did your bars?
Local shop
Really enjoy your videos. The triple play is a reasonably affordable modification that pays huge dividends! See what I did there? Hehe.. anyway love the bars and the new kicks! Have fun and ride safe!

Thanks for the vid. I’ve just ordered the 14” meathook apes from KST. Can you give me a ballpark figure on what you think it should cost me for the install? Thanks
It really depends on your mechanic shop...I paid a bout $400 but Harley would charge double - most likely...
I'm thinking about getting bars installed at Daytona bike week.
Bars look great
Hi Holy shift
I am thinking about getting the same handle bars. Would you please tell me how tall you are??
5”9’
Thank you Holy Shift I should be ok I am 5'10"
Nice jacket, I have the same one too!
your seating position is mush better with the new kst bars good for your back.
Yeah, it feels better too
Just great videos. I can’t wait for the next one. With your hands elevated into the wind. How does it feel ?
It's good - but hands are exposed to the wind! In winter - It's chilly !
SURE.
What kind of helmet you have Sandy
Crazy Al’s beanie
Bars look good, r they comfortable
Kenneth Baker very !
How tall are you? I've been thinking about either 12" or 14" meat hooks or monkey bars

I Sandy, we met Saturday, Ducati Italian guy )
Hey Mateo - fun little meet with you in the park. Thanks for watching- hope to see you again on the twisty roads..Forza Italia 💪🏻😎
Have the same bars on 2016 street Glide, love them . Hey sandy don’t make the same mistake John made and trade in the Harley . God Bless him but those bikes are made for the young crowd. He’ll regret it after a three hour ride .
Richard Mendez yeah - give him som time and he’ll switch back to a Harley 👍🏻 😆 LOL 👍🏻
Professor don't you go and trade your Harley in. If you need a riding buddy, I'm in Delaware. I'll do some trips with you
Haha thanks. I'll ring you up ...
It’s still 23$ … but it’s not going anyway. Better than cash now
Like I’m gonna take investment advise from a guy who orders a Cyber truck 🛻 over a new Bronco 😂
I dig those shoes though 👍
Was I wrong about the price of silver thought? 🤪
Is the Bronco bulletproof 🤨
Great call on Silver buddy 😂 22 months later and you would have lost money if you took his advice. Stick to talking about motorcycles, not giving investment advice. Besides that the video was awesome, I have been looking at doing bars as well.
I still stand behind my call on Silver and Gold. Wait!
I buy gold and silver, but it's not doing as well as my crypto!!!!! Yup...triple digit silver incoming!!!
I’m not against crypto. I think it’s the future- but nobody can predict which one crypto will be the one that takes off.... it can be any one of them.
Both of those trucks are ugly. I just wanted to know about the handle bars Jesus
How tall are you?
Great video very helpful thanks!
