- I was able to install a set of the Factory 47 14'' handle bars on my 2021 Harley Davidson Road Glide Limited using the stock cable. Did have to remove the top half of the cable and then re-route it in order to get it to reach the lever. I will be getting the longer cable if and when it is available. Thanks for watching and ride safe. Cliff

Great Video! Mark from Factory47
Very entertaining to see those steps to change out the factory bars to bigger ones. Good info on the factory cables too.
Thanks. Glade you liked it. Ride safe.
Cool brother!! I just put a deposit on a 2022 Road Glide Special, and ordered the same bars. Thank you!!
Thanks for doing this video man. I've got a 2022 Road Glide ST and I ordered the same bars from Dennis Kirk and they told me that the stock cables would fit but my Harley shop said anything over a 12 inch bar you need extended cables so I bought the extended cables to go with the bars; I'm glad I did.
You definitely get a thumbs up for presentation step by step with the cable through the bars
Appreciate all the detail in your video, this will help me get my bars on. Subscribed!
Yeah I have those bars on my 17 roadglide l installed on myself I just wasn't comfortable with how tight there was so instead of doing all the other stuff I just let the dealer pull them in Hey it's Harley. Plus I had those black cables changed out changed out to Chrome or stainless steel but I had the black cables changed out. I got it but thanks for the video and the information because you're the only one that I've watched that admitted what you did to it.✌🏽👍🏼👍🏼
Nice video, the bars look cool.
the best video until now... 👋👋👋👋👋👋
Very nice! Excellent work!!
Thanks. Ride safe.
Just an FYI the pin is only on the wrong side for the limited/CVO models. I have a '21 Road Glide Standard model and the pin is in the correct place with the factory 47 14" bars. I like how you ran your wires through. Came to watch because I ordered heated grips so now I am going to have to tear mine apart again.
Not to bad. Great video man !!
Great informative video man👍
Thanks
Great video mate thanks
Loved it…very helpful. Thank you.
Welcome. Ride safe.
Hell yeah! Great video.
Great video I am getting ready right now to try install kst 14" spear head... I Bought heat grip wire extention, and clutch cable extender from fast baggers they said it makes it easier than trying to make things fit....I have to locate that main fuse.. just got my 2022 2days ago wish me luck thx I got a lot from your video rise and besafe
how did it workout,with the 4' cable extension
Good job, liking the progress on the bike
Thanks. Was able to get in a good ride today with the new bars. So far they are a good fit for me.
Waiting to see the bike out of the garage ! Walk around etc
@@richlittle6810 I’ll have a riding video out soon. Thanks for watching.
I just installed a 14” bar and everything worked without any extensions. I was able to run the cables clean behind everything.
Did you come across an issue with the amount of slack you had on your controls? I have my wires ran but I can’t clip the control system around the bar due to not enough slack. Any tips??
Great Video Just swapped out my 12inch Factory 47 to La Choppers Hammerhead T-bars 14inch on 2020 Road Glide Limited
Was it an smooth swap?
@@cliffcares6455 yes it went smooth running the wires out and threw the new bars took a little time didn’t want to strip any wires
@@icewaterjay Yes you want to take your time pulling the wires.
Great video. Installed my 14" spearheads yesterday rerouted the clutch same way you did. Definitely want a longer line when Harley comes out with it.
Same here. Still waiting.
Fat head cycles have them
I get one from H-D.
@@cliffcares6455 did you get one from HD? Happen to have the part #
@@AmpedUpJoe Harley part # 37200325. Hope they have one in stock.
Meus parabens pelo novo guidão, estava pensando em trocar o meu tambem, mas dá muito trabalho pra realizar a troca kkkk. Ficou muito bom, precisou alongar os cabos eletricos e os conduites do freio e da embreagem??? Valeu
Vice grip to pull the pin out. Drill a new hole on the RH side, then re-install the pin.
What causes the throttle to “stick” or not “snap back” is, they are pushed forward too tight against the switch housing.
That’s what does it! If you push it too tight against the housing, it’ll stick. (ask me how I learned that lol)
Great video. Do you think you would of needed to reroute the clutch cable with only 12" instead of 14"?
For the 14" did you have to purchase the wire harness to add more wire for the reach?
Awesome content. I have 12" Factory 47 signature bars for my 2022 Roadglide Special. Few questions, can I use the stock clutch cable for the install? Also, the stock wiring harness? Did you have to remove the fairing for the install? You mentioned that the throttle side wiring is thicker than the clutch side. Is that a separate throttle wire or is all included with the NAMZ wire harness?
Thank you
Love how you always have your sidearm. Blessings 🙌
Thanks for this great tutorial, I’m planning to buy 14” Chizeled bars from Harley, do you think it’s possible to do the same with stock cables?
Tnx
Good job
Thanks and ride safe.
Great video brother super helpful . I just bought a 2022 RGL and the 14 KST bars parts department said I need the heater grips extension , you didn’t use extension for your grips did you?
Thank you in advance
Great video dude, I got 13” bars in for mine on Tuesday and haven’t put them on yet just cause i was hoping to not have to reroute anything...
I’ve heard someone makes extensions. Believe it makes the self adjuster longer.
@@cliffcares6455 wait---SELF adjuster? I'm gonna have to look at this, I read the manual as a last resort lol. I'm just coming up on 1K service gonna have to look at this one---over a beer
hey man great video. Question. Did you leave the brake line in the factory location or did you have to reroute it too?
Great video man!!! Few things I did different...I put the entire cable in sheathing and shrink wrapped it up top at the controls and the cables didnt get hung up at ALL in my bars...then just cut it at the bottom. Turned out super nice even though no one will ever see it :D. The other thing was my controls had nubs on them that had to be knocked off before the controls could be mounted...I assume yours did to, you just didnt show it unless the 47 bars have holes for them too....which they may (I got LA choppers and they didnt). FANTASTIC video brother!!!
I did have to remove these tabs for my last bars but not with the Factory 47 bars. They had the holes for them. I did finally get the Harley extended clutch cable and ran it the same as the OEM cable.
Good too know, just got the LA choppers
Thank You
Hi did you have to change any cable, or are they all stock including wiring?
Tks
Awesome video. I got a 21 rg special and installed 14s I'm catching hell with the front brake cable and I'm going to have to reroute it. I wish harley had kept this year like years previous. Great content 👍
Do you think it would be an issue still with the bars an inch shorter?
@@justinmarriott605 knowing what I know now I wish I had gotten the factory 47 12 inch bars instead of these 14s. I had a 2017 and put 14s on them and had no problem getting the clutch or front brake to fit. But this year has been a nightmare for me. I called the harley dealership and they told me previously the rule of thumb has been no more than 16 inch bars or else you will have to reroute or extend the cables. Well this year it's now no more than 12 inch according to them. It's frustrating the nickel and dime that harley makes us go through to accomplish something as simple as putting bars on
@@donaldfitchett9666 Damn... i got LAChoppers 13” Twin Peaks and was going to install them tomorrow... guess not anymore, lol
@@justinmarriott605 lmao naw man go thru and get them done I know they're gonna look great when your done. I just got done working on mine for 2 hours and after a lot of choice words I'm coming off of a failed attempt lol. But that's why we do this it's all part of the game. Even though mine are 14s there is a way to get this done so don't let me discourage you from doing it. You got this. I'm sure it's something I'm doing wrong. I'm gonna wake up tomorrow morning and work on it til I get it right
@@donaldfitchett9666 well… i gave it a shot… everything bolts in place, but hard bends at both perches. it’s doable, but to me just feels sketchy
Do you have heated grips. Did you have to buy extensions.
I have the Factory 47 10 inch bars on my 21 Road Glide Special. Now the ignition switch will not lock, The switch doesn't go down far enough to lock. The shop said these bars don't fit the 21 bike's very good and the only way to make it work is to grind down the dash to make it so the ignition switch will go down far enough to lock. Has anyone had this problem?
What is that smaller 2 wire connector on the right used for at 8:10? Thanks
Great video brother. I have a 21 CVO Road Glide and thinking about doing the same bars you used. This was a very helpful video. What stogie you smoking? Gotta make a project like this go better with a good cigar!
Plasencia Alma Fuerte Robustus. A good cigar and bourbon always nice when working on the bike.
Trying to figure out which product to buy. Amazon has 100ft of 1/2 wire loom. The also sell 3/8 and 1/4. Which size did you go with?
can you do a video for 14" on a 2021 HD Streetglide special
Did you have to use the heated grip wire extension with this 14 in handlebar?
Good video but where do i get that rope from. I tried just about anything still can’t get the cables through
Wher did guys get that wire fisher tool from
What size Chinese finger trap did you use?
Yooooo have u upgraded your perch clamps? I went with the trashin clamps & now I have the slot where the stock clamps were.
Awesome video man. Did you have to replace the brake line or was there enough slack after cutting zip ties? Stay two up bro
There was enough brake cable but if I went with 16”. Might have to get a longer cable.
I just ordered mine from fat baggers 4” extension
Where did you purchase the Chinese finger trap pulled?
When i pull my fuse the alarm squeltch will not stop. Do you know how to turn the alarm off?
Did you ever end up getting the extensions
Where did you buy that Chinese finger mesh?
Where did you get the chinese finger trap gadget?
Factory 47 told me that their signature bars wouldn’t work on my 2021 Road Glide limited with the heated grips. But I see that you reinstalled yours. Did you do anything special or order the bars special?
I didn’t see anything saying that. Only issues I had was the throttle was sticking. I thought the powder coating was a little thick. So I sanded it down some. Works fine now. Throttle snaps back.
Where did you get the Chinese finger at? I usually use #12 stranded wire to pull the control wires thru but that looks a lot easier
This way was a lot easier then what I used on my last bars. I used para cord. Lol. Look up expandable braided sleeving.
Found it as PET flexible wire sheath on amazon
@@5150BigBubba you guys answered my question
I’m amazed you didn’t scratch those bars by not putting anything on the workbench to protect them. That plastic isn’t a very good way to protect them and also shocked that you didn’t pull the connectors off the wires by pulling them through like that.
Did you have to adjust the clutch cable manually?
Yes but it's a lot easier then the old way. Having to use 2 wrenches. Only need a small screw driver to pull the clip out. Than its spring load and takes the slack out of the cable. Then push the clip back in to hold the adjustment.
Hey man great video what is the red hose you use to fish the wire through the bars can you give me the name and where to get it from? Thanks
@cliffcares was looking for the same info as Jose! thanks Cliff!
Found it as PET flexible wire sheath on amazon---- from below! done!
Are you able to use the stock throttle cable when installing these 14” bars ?
Stock throttle cable is plenty long
Theres a couple zip tie clips you need to cut I. Order for you to have the slack you need for the bars so you don’t have to reroute anything
You have an issues with the bars hitting your windshield?
Nope.
Do you think if you went with 12” bar you would have to relocate the clutch cable?
If they did the cable would be pretty tight.
I did LA Chopper 12s and it fit fine inthe stock route, I did cut all teh zip ties though...some are hard to find....
Did you have to do anything special with the brake cable? I feel like it's not reaching or may need to be extended or rerouted.
Yes I did. Had to remove the upper cable from the adjuster. Remove the cable. Then rerouted. I showed where I rerouted in the video. Skip to 23:50 in the video.
@@cliffcares6455 yes I seen that about the clutch cable but I was wondering about the brake cable thx
@@jessebaker462 my bad. You cut the zip tie holding the brake hose? It’s behind the instrument cluster.
@@cliffcares6455 yes thanks alot 🙏 now just got to get a new fork lock unlock thing cuz mine got all screwed up trying to get it off lol
Hope that help. Try pushing down on the lock while turning. That helps sometimes.
Did you need wire extension or just the issue with the clutch cable ?
Was able to use the stock cable without using an extension.
The wires reach but one has maybe 2” lol.
Thanks brotha
Welcome. Happy to help.
Is that the factory air filter that came with the bike or did you change it?
I don’t think it’s factory. The dealer swapped the stock 114 with a 131 crate engine. And that’s what the dealer put on the new engine. Wanting to put a different filter on. The same shape but the center is filter instead of a cover. Want to get more air in.
@@cliffcares6455 ooh didn’t realize you had a 131. That’s bad ass. Thanks man.
Welcome. Ride safe.
good vid man! Where did you get the chinese finger trap stuff-that was slick. .................. I edited this just to give you a FYI- your pin that restricts how far the bars can move, I had a 16 RG Ultra ( she got totaled, whole diff story) and the pin that year was on the other side where those bars would have matched right up. You can also just pull that pin rather then tapping it in. It didnt come out real hard.
Thanks. I got it from Amazon. Not sure which video I got it from but it was easier then the last set of bars I did. Why should I edit that out? I’ve seen it done on other videos. My last bars didn’t have a hole for it. So had to knock it down and these bars the hole was on the wrong side.
@@cliffcares6455 No I didnt mean you should edit that out of your Vid the Vid was great--I meant I edited my post to tell you about my 16 pin. Yea instead a knocking it down, which honestly I never even thought of, I just pulled it. LOL either way we both got the pin outta the damn way!
@@mickthedawg4575 haha ok.
@@cliffcares6455 any chance you could find where you got the chinese fingers on Amazon. The ones I see are only 5" to 7" long.

How many hours to install ?
It took me an hour and a half. Thats fishing the wires thru the bars. You definitely need patience..
You think 12s will fit without tearing down the throttle cables pick my 21 special up in 2 days and them stock bars got to go
Are you talking the wire connectors?
@@cliffcares6455 no the clutch and break lines was wondering if on a 21 they would need extentions
@@Walt450 I put 14” bars on and the brake cable reaches but will either need to re-route or get a longer clutch cable.
I think I would have upgraded the riser bushings while I was in there
How
I found that the stock riser bushings are weak when you move the bars from front to back
Did you see the fatbagger kit
You taking about the extended cable kit?
@@cliffcares6455 Yeah the extension kit for the clutch and brake line. I was going to snag 1 when i go to install mine
I’ll give them a call. Thanks and hope your install goes good.
Hey man, are you on Facebook? I have a question about the Chinese finger trap stuff your working with.
Watched this and ordered a 4” cable extension from fat baggers.
Someone told me about them. I was waiting to see if H-D was going to get any in first. Was about to get one a few weeks ago from H-D.
@@cliffcares6455 I appreciate the videos man.
Coors from San Angelo Texas.
I used the same extension. Worked perfect.
Hell yeah!! Work on bikes with a strap on your hip
Loose the stogie ! Your health is more important ! If you have stress or doing it to feel good , find a healthy alternative because in the long run your screwing your self!
So brake no problem- clutch works but get the extended cable to be better - correct …?
Hey cliff do you have a Facebook or Instagram? I’m trying to get in touch with you I have a question
