BLOCK! I'm getting my bike like tomorrow, I'm so excited!!!
Doodle’s music - congrats! 🤘🏼
That cable through the field of vision would drive me crazy!
Richard Griffin 🤷🏻♂️
What cable?
Zip ties would fix that.
a good bar job includes clutch adjustment and better cable management
You look over the shield not through it man
Being a rider in Ca and being able to lane split. I’ve found it easier to lane split with a club style Dyna. Cause our bars are higher than most car mirrors. And it allows me to kind of whip my bike back and forth through cars at the lower speeds of lane splitting. I’ve got 14” club style bars.
Raising the bars is always a great idea. I think I’m at 13 or 14” and it just makes the handling more responsive!
I have the 10" biltwell risers with thrashin supply midrise bars. Love my setup very comfortable and improved handling drastically.
Cody Bieker I just ordered my 10 inch biltwell risers and am keeping the stock handlebars. You think it’ll be too high?
@@texasfedtexasbred1803 it all depends on personal preference man. I'm 5'10" and only have a 30" inseam so I have a very long torso. My 10" risers with my 4" thrashin bars are the perfect hight for me.
@@codybieker4924 badass! I think the stock bars has like a 3 inch rise. Thanks for the peace of mind! Lol
@@texasfedtexasbred1803 you're welcome and the nice thing about risers is you can always change out different bars till you find the bar that suits you best.
@codybieker4924 glad I saw this video. I've been debating new risers and bars..2001 Deuce stock with the drag bars. Not comfortable after 2 hrs. I'm 5'10" with 30" inseam. From your input, i thinking gonna get the 9.5" pullback risers with Thrashin' mid bend bar, that i was looking at. Should be perfect! Thanks
I have a similar setup with 8" biltwell Murdock risers and their 28" bars with a 2.5" pullback. So comfortable!
Sweet dude 🤙 MX Bars in a Harley is my two favourite areas of the motorcycle industry coming together. Installing the Kraus KickBack Risers and Fly Moto Bar on my Sport Glide next week. Can’t wait ⚡️✌️
The Moto Barista - nice!
I'm gonna be trading in my 06 ultra classic for a 2020 low rider s this summer can't wait love that bike.
I've got a 6 inch rise (bike, not me, don't get excited) with a drag bar on mine and it works if you want that style without the hard lean to ride....in case anyone was wondering 🤙
Hi Blockhead. What a beautiful weather you have compare to Scotland 👍😎 nice video as usual 👍
Yeah bruh! Same over here in Germany. Shitty af 😭
I used to have the hard case risers and pro taper mx bars on my dyna. Switched to lucky daves lucky 13s last year. Wouldn't mind giving the lucky daves riser bar a try on a future bike
Pro taper bars you'll love them
kenny Irish - I’ve got em on my Grom 😁
I'm 5'7. You think I'd be better off going with the 7" risers? I got the same bike and the same seat btw.
Always been a fan of the upright riding position. As for looks, I think form fits function. The bike wouldn't be any good if you hated to ride it.
Dirty Doigler - truth
Now this is my kinda video.
Just talkin and crusing
I love the dirt bars on Harley
It looks good that looks basically like the same setup I have on the old trusty Wide Glide I own but I'm lucky at 6 with three I'm pretty long good video bro
Get the bars CeraKoted Cerakote is great stuff and hard as nails. Used a lot on customized rifles.
great Video, looking to swap out drag bars and I dig how you bars look... I have 6" risers and drag bars are slightly low still.... Checking out your bars now.. Ride Safe
Looks like a small bar to get all the wiring through. I have always stated had issues with the way a lot of bars twist in at the end, putting an angle on my wrist. Does not look like any issues with that. Look comfortable.
Those bars look sweet, brother.
Great video, I just bought a 2016 FXDLS and was looking for a good bar/riser set up and went w your set up. Which Rokform mount is that, the perch? Thanks man!
Hey I have a 2010 steeet bob Trying to make it as black as I can what kind of mirrors are those I like how they kind a looks small lower they’re not too high and yeah I’m in your position right now I’m trying to find risers and bars for me because I’m 6”1 And I want to make sure that my arms are fully extended out and not bent
Hey Block. What do you think of legend Revo A rear suspension? What suspension are you rocking?
Wanna Be Golf Nerd - stock suspension, not sure on the Legends
Hey Block, are you running bags on this bike and if not then what bags are you looking at?
Yo block head you missed a trick with the “ I love goooold” from Austin Powers gold member. 😂. Bikes looking sweet bro, keep up the good work 👌🏾🤙🏾🇬🇧
What tuner are you using on this bike. I am looking at pulling the trigger on the FP3 but am a little nervous about it. I have seen the other videos with you using it and want to see if you still do or If you want to something different. Thanks!
Im thinking about putting some Harley 1.25 Moto Bars on my stock low rider s risers.... what do you think?
I like the MX bars as you have more leverage for turns. Most Harley bars look like those fold up bike bars( grips seem to close). Scary to drive through the Twisties especially with feet forward. Harley’s are still more straight line type cruising especially with the weight.
Picked up my 2021 on Saturday I gotta have these🤣do they ship to Aus?
Been trying to find when you flipped the mirrors on the softail low rider s and can’t seem to. Do you have a video? If not, what extensions did you use.
Awesome. Looks good, man. I'm kinda like some other comments, as clean as that bike is................. That cable would drive my slight ocd into overdrive. But, as I've said before, it's your bike, as long as its all unicorns farting rainbows and butterflies...... 🔔 YEAH. ✌
Billy Webb - I didn’t really notice it until so many people here commented on it, lol
Now seen.... It can never be unseen....... Can't wait for the "cable hide" episode. 😂
Hi block very nice always a pleasure to watch 🇦🇺👍
Russell Warr 👊🏼
Do you have cruise control on that guy? I love the low rider s but after riding a street glide with cruise control it's I don't think I'll ever own another bike without it 😂. I know the 2020 doesn't have it and am being kinda lazy and haven't looked up if you can plug and play the controls from Harley. Thanks for the vid!
Fairing looking awesome with the bars and risers. how is it working out on the open road? sweet vid as always Block. R.S.S.V
MrSimulatedsanity - working great, that vid coming soon! 👍🏼
Awesome vid of u cruisin n chillin on ya bike top 1 😀🏍️ north of England
What you think about ape hangers? I'm thinking to get some
Paul Negrean - not a fan personally but if that’s what you like, more power to ya!
Blockhead help! Any answers as to why my 2020 low rider s wont start after new handle bar and wire installation? All lights work, fuel pump kicks on....just wont start? I checked all connections and battery. I'm at a loss...help!
Damn. In my neck of the woods at the beginning.
Would you say hardcase risers are superior to lucky 13 tbars?
What were your throttle/brake cable measurements ?
I like the hand position, just not into the club style. I would prefer the bars John Maxwell has. Definitely a lot more work than what one would think.
Can you please do a comparison video with the plex audio against the stock street glide audio? I’m gonna keep my street glide but picking up a lowrider s as a second. I’m spoiled with the music.
I have a fxbb. Planning on doing similar bars. Did you have to change wiring? I’m looking at 8” with a 1” pull back. I don’t like above shoulder bars and I have to use gauge as too clamp.
Del1000r look for lower gauge mount for the Fxbb, if you have t-bars or risers they are a better way of keeping the digital gauge in your eyesight. 5 company’s make them and you won’t have to buy another set of extensions for them.
Nice but are those 1” or 1 1/8” risers????
Hey Blockhead, how the hell are ya? I have strongly been considering this bike, but I am 6'4 and not sure if it is too small for me and especially with the mid-controls. Thoughts?
I'm 6"3 and its fine for me but I'd definitely look into some taller risers than the stock. Its ok for cruising around town but gets old on long trips.
I lane split in NYC with my low rider, and yeah it’s difficult on the low rider so many close calls hahaha, bent both my hiway bars already hhahaha
I'd rather have use of the draft with the stock bars, as to lean my head down near the stock bars when racing or moving at high speed.
Risers and clamp cool.levers would have went shorty black.
Goals
Yeah yeah bras bla bla bla. What Camara are you using bro. This video is on a much higher quality. Holy moly pure quality video on 4k.
Where's the bobber? 😎
How about a review of the 2020 Softail Standard that HD just dropped?
Jay Sherman - will do!
I lane split my lowrider no problem. But here in California baggers get it too lol
Bob Hog I’ve been chased by baggers while lane splitting on my Dyna.!! I usually let them get in front and clear a bigger path for me.
Who measured your clutch cable? It is at least 4" to long. It way to intrusive visually and routed all willie nillie, sorry to use such technical terminology. I love the look, perfect riser height and bar choice.
Sunday night Blockhead video uploads...Click...and of coarse Like..
I sat on a bike with risers and it's just not for me; I'm too short. Looks cool though!
What's the fairing you got on that bike?
Hey I just got a new low rider s does anyone know if you can swap your mirrors to the bottom of your bars I can’t see through them where they sit right now
Blockhead idk if your gonna see this since older video but your videos have been so much help and my fix while I’m working on saving up for either a Harley street bob 2020 or the low rider s I can’t decide what would be a smarter and cheaper move to go with the street bob and build it up with Memphis shades road warrior saddle man and lucky Dave’s lucky 13 and two brothers or just go with the low rider s which is much more idk or even go with a used 18 or 19 street bob already built up
Any have any advice or what would be the good move thanks again brotha for all your content it’s for sure been my fix I can’t wait to get out and ride 😁
Bike would look sweet with some thrashin supply escape bags
Dyna boy certified
Had a quick question, is a quarter fairings decent for long riding?!
I’d like to know as well if anyone has experience with one give feedback. I’m interested in a cafe fairing for my sportster
XxDarkHoundxX - feedback vid incoming soon 👍🏼
When are you installing the 131
the 131 only fits the touring models so far, it hasn't come out for the softails
Jaya Krishna 😳
What front screen and speaker setup is that?
My bars rusted through the clamp too.
Not into the extended risers look, I will stick with the mini apes on the Street Bob, grip position seems similar height.
same here
i was gonna get this for the iron 883 but id have to buy the gauge bracket which is another like 250
I would recommend looking into t bar gauge mounts or riser gauge mounts instead of buying the gauge mount plate from hardcase. I think it's much cheaper. Let me know if you can't find it and i can try and post a link here
@@chrisdawson8252 thanks man ima get a tbar off of revzilla
@@neji1496 i was thinking about something like this and try to use it with risers. But depends what you prefer. Also, if you're not set on hardcase risers, there's other risers that you can use the stock top clamp. Then you won't have to use a custom gauge kount bracket specific to their design
@@chrisdawson8252 I wanna keep my stock bars I like em and I just put grips and bar end mirrors so I don't wanna take them out and have to put them in new bars I'd appreciate any links to risers that allow me to keep my stock bars and stock Gauge brackets
@@chrisdawson8252 Hit up kns customs
I like the riser. I am thinking of one for my 2018 heritage. it is the 6 1/2 curved riser. the parts are not much really but the freaking labor is $600. uggggh. still thinking. I don't want to tackle it.
ugh i want that bike so bad lol one day !
Nail polish clear will not rust
velvetkilla 9 nice!
Do you have a discount code with Lucky Dave’s?
Male Order Rides - no code with LD
Where could I find the sissy bar that you have on your low rider?
Andres Saavedra I have asked so many times and have yet to get an answer :(
Andres Saavedra - Top Hand
Yeeted Yurmom - Top Hand
Uploading at midnight PDT? Do you actually get views this early?
its 9.15pm mon nite here
John - Ha!
personal opinion but i think massive risers with the standard type bars looks shit. may aswell use apes. ive got a fxdx with 10" apes.
Hey new tattoo
Only use Harley or reputable clamps. Other import clamps tend to snap at speed and do not have clamping strength... No bueno..
Somebody needs to come up with a new fad. I'm not into it at all. No, I haven't ridden the setup, I don't care.
Larry Feevey Jr - Someone needs a hug.
I’d really suggest actually riding the setup at a few different heights before giving your opinions and input. At this point it’s all mute.
If you don’t care you wouldn’t have posted a comment 🤷🏻♂️
