  • Make your ape hangers on your‪@harleydavidson‬look "finished!" The day the Fairing Exchange put my ‪@kstkustoms1324‬ 18" bars on my Road Glide they showed me something on one of their bikes I had to have. Proper, metal cable clamps that would keep your bike looking organized and proper. I hunted down some from ‪@HillCountryCustomCycles‬ on Amazon, and I freaking love these!
    Here is the link, they're only $20! amzn.to/3GzLrOF

    Love these clamps. Use them on my 95 Fatboy. They work good on the front left frame down tube to replace the factory clutch cable clamp. And I use the double clamp for the throttle and idle. Your bars look awesome.

    Hope to see you two do a live soon, hopefully while I can catch it and not while I'm driving back from Daytona. It's lonely round here with just cows at Cackleberry for company.

    Welcome back Brother! Hope you rebound quickly from jet-lag. Nice, functional & inexpensive cable clamps for managing cable alignment, sway, etc. with tall bars & longer cables. Looking forward to the Radioactive Green build...looks freaking awesome.
    Also, looking forward to your Tuning Videos (Dynojet Power Vision PV3b, '21 and newer HD). I ran same tuner (base map from fuel moto) on my '21 RGS 114 Stage-2 (S&S 465 cam, S&S 2-1 Sidewinder, FM/K&N 3956 air cleaner) w/stock OE narrowband O2 sensors and it worked really well. For my '23 RG-ST (Stage-1 right now...S&S 2-1 Sidewinder and HD-SE Extreme Ventilator air cleaner, I plan to run same Tuner (PV3b) but also run Dynojet TT-8 18mm wideband O2 sensors. Again, welcome back!

    @hhplymouth9473 ปีที่แล้ว

    I really like the green paint. I can not say how autotune compares to a tuner. I had my power commander go bad. It was replaced and the bike was tuned. The a little over a year later I had the bike dyno tuned again. I was trying to get more MPG out of it. The bike was running at a 12 to 1 air fuel ratio. They leaned it out to 13 to 1 air fuel ratio at full throttle. I gained 7hp and 8lbft of torque. Unfortunately I only gained about 1MPG on average. The tune cost me $360. The biggest surprise to me is the only place I found near me to get my bike dynotuned was the Harley Davidson dealer. Why I was shocked is because it is a Honda VTX1800R. With all the talk of Harley dealers not working on older Harleys. This one worked on a Honda.

    G'day Mr & Mrs monkey....
    WARNING ❗❗
    From personal experience & I still using these exact product from Drag Specialist, now little TIP....
    My clutch cable out side of cable was wearing, so unclasped & put some electrical tape on the clutch cable to provent damage...
    Also your brake cable being loose & siding inside the bracket WILL EVENTUALLY RUB & DAMAGE ❗
    So I put a little electrical tape again on the brake cable & everything is perfect.
    ALSO I put a little electrical tape on the inside of the bracket on the bar side, to prevent damage to the bars .... As WILL scratch in the long run❗
    Do whatever you like but this was my experience & what I've done to make them work properly & without issues in the long run.....
    Living The F🤪KING Dream ❗
    Safe travels 🙏♥️🐾🐾🇦🇺
