      I use Hitchcocks rasiers,,they are the back to you and up,,, the cables fitted no sweat,,and it has transformed the bike.... Maybe its your bars are a different size,,, Barkbusters are too spendy,,,you can do alot better for your money

    Great build series. Just found your channel. I was surprised with all the views that many didn't subscribe.
    Sometimes a simple "don't forget to subscribe so you don't miss out on the next video " mentioned 1/3, 1/2 way and at the 3/4 mark with a simple graphic on screen for 2-2.5 seconds, does wonders.
    I wondered that as well why aren't the bolts and handle bar black. Not to mention the skid plate. 😊
    Thanks for sharing. 💪👍🛠

      Thanks! I go back and forth on the skid plate. Considering a Happy Trails model but I don’t ride hard enough to justify it.

    I think the classic 500 has a sightly longer clutch cable, i changed it when i did my risers.
    Bark busters go on the outside of the end weights, not the inside of the weights. Thats why yours are hitting the dash

    @BMiobW 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Hey man. Enjoyed your video. Keep it up! One thing though: You put the balance weigths on the outside of the Barkbusters. I am pretty sure they are intended to go in the inside ;)

      I had trouble finding space for the inside connection point. That said, you're probably right. ;)

    I like many have ridden many bikes in my day. I purchased a new 2022 Himalayan two weeks ago, close to 1500 miles now and I've really enjoying what the bike offers. Some suggest its inferior! I ask to what ? The bike doesn't over promise on what it is capable of so therefore it is successful in delivery. 80 mpg is ok in my book. The savings pays for alot of fuel and the 3 year unlimited mileage warranty is awesome. Ride on Mike enjoy !

    TIP: Loosen but do not take apart the kill switch/ throttle assembly. Remove the bar clamps and you can move the bars enought to slide the throttle assembly off. Reverse this for installation.

      Good idea. I wish I had thought of that. 🤔😁

    • @mattyb7736
      @mattyb7736 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Not on the himalayan, the switches have a locating pin that requires you to fully disassemble the switch, you can't get it loose enough to get the pin out if the bar then slide it.

  • @mikerobinson8734
    @mikerobinson8734 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I opted for a brace rather than replacing the whole bar. They are dirt cheap even if it does bend. Like $20

    Hi...pls help!...min 4:23... how much torque (nm) do the handlebar bolts have?

    • @advmike
      @advmike  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I didn’t torque them to a specific number. With all my bikes I just tighten them down to the “That’s not going anywhere” feeling. It’s not like the motor where there are moving parts to consider. You’ll be ok. 👍👍

      Congrats on your Himi! I'll link the levers on ebay below, but it's the American site so you'll want to search your local site.
      I like being able to adjust the levers to better fit my grip. For that reason, they are totally worth it!

    YOU BUY THESE INFERIOR BIKES AND YOU END UP REPLACING EVERYTHING AND IT COSTS YOU MORE IN THE END. I DONTY GET IT. HANDLES BAD, NO POWER, 2 UP IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE, LOAD IT UP AND ITS EVEN WORSE. JUST GET A KTM, AFRICA TWIN, YAMAHA, AND STOP STRUGGLING.

      Mikey B has never risen a royal enfield Himalayan. No one I have come across says it handles poorly and it handles loads like a champ.
      Who rides an adv 2 up anyway?

      Well Mikey. I love my Himalayan, done heaps of Ks on it. It does alll things I want it to do. Got no interest in getting one of those uninferior bikes. I also enjoy personalizing it to my taste, which is very affordable. Enjoy riding your uninferior bike, we don't all need one!
