    Fantastically helpful! What a relief not to have the amateurish, shaking camera, stuttering, starting four sentences and finishing none. Excellent camera work excellent content and excellent clarity. Thank you so much!!!

    Thanks for the video, bought my first Harley Softail and dropped it getting it off a trailer and broke the brake lever. Your video was most helpful in showing me how to replace the lever. Thanks again!

    Thank you for all the details, this video definitely encourage me 🙂
    The only difference for my 2018 Ultra Limited was no need to take apart the housing, only perch.

    I’m super proud of myself for being able to change the levers on my 2022 StreetBob! It’s been scary to ride it because I couldn’t adequately reach the clutch so I’ve mostly been riding my Sportster. Thank you for making the video. It made the process so simple!

    @ 1:20- top bolt won't BUDGE!. I don't want to strip the bolt/or the bolt head. I sprayed a little WD-40,no dice-a little lube spray,again no dice. Any suggestions?-Much appreciated

    So I tried pulling the lever after pulling the pin and may have sheered off that button. Any good way to go about fixing that?

    Ryan, by chance would you know the size of that pin snap ring or have an amazon link to the snap rings? I destroyed my snap ring. Thanks!

    Ryan, as always thanks for the video. I'm replacing the stock hand levers with chrome. It's always easier to watch a project before attempting.

    I have a 2014 Low RIder, Dyna. Some people say put the carboard shim in and and some say not needed? Confused? What's your opinion on my bike? Thanks and as always great videos. Easy to understand.

    Hey there I hope you see this I see it's been awhile. Ok right hand lever will not move , I'm hoping that can remove the lever I do have to replace both throttle cables too. Should I go ahead and order button ? Since start and run switch has faded out actually all have on right and left side I want to replace them anyway. Love the videos you make it easy looking, so don't stop and thank you for sharing it really helps. From Mobile, Alabama !

    Good video, getting ready to change my levers out, snapped old clutch lever, so looking for a good CNC machined AL black set. Suggestions?

    Thanks . My front caliper locked up and over I went ! Damaged the brake lever boss and smashed a finger ( 1 year to recover ) . Now it's time to fix the old skoot ( 2003 flstci 100 yr. anniversary model ).

    Do you need to remove the entire reservoir and switch housing?

    • @sheepdogessentials9653
      @sheepdogessentials9653 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I just watched another guy do it on a 2018 without taking the whole thing apart. Also, if you watch this video close, you can see that it is not necessary.

    • @Drone-Footage-UK
      @Drone-Footage-UK 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Exactly what I'm thinking is there any reason why it needs to all come apart and can't just remove the pin with it all attached to handle bars ?

  • @NC-HD-FatBoy
    @NC-HD-FatBoy 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    love your videos! Not sure why you would take the whole case off the bars to do a simple brake leaver??

    • @RyanUrlacher
      @RyanUrlacher  5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      To show everyone how to remove everything and the entire right side assembly. That way the tips and tricks can be used for many projects. Thanks for watching. The footage came from one of our handlebar install videos.

    I bought a pair of skulls levers had no problem with clutch lever but went to do brake side the lever was tight trying to put in when I had it as far as I could get it the hole for pin was about 1/8” off. I own a Harley 05 Wide Glide any suggestions?

    Nice that you mention the switch, indeed, it can be a bit fragile.

  • @covidthechipmunk5805
    @covidthechipmunk5805 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    nice vid on the brake handle replacement but you must update your clutch cable handle replacement vid because the 2020 softails have a new spring/clip way to adjust and replace. Doc Harley beat you to that one. So much easier now

    I may be a complete idiot but I've watched this video three times.
    I understand the issue with the brake light switch.
    I see him installing a piece of cardboard which holds the brake lever closed which releases the pressure on the switch.
    Then when he takes it apart and the lever is gone when he tries to introduce the new lever where is he putting the shim because I don't see it.
    And I've watched it three times.
