2023 CVO Road Glide T Bar Install

- Today on Baggers and BS we install a set of T Bars, using @boostedbrad 10 inch risers and @KrausMoto bars. The install goes pretty smooth over all, however you will need a 3/4inch drill bit to accommodate the heated grip on the left hand side and you will need to widen the openings on the bars for the wire plugs. A super subtle and minor modification was made to the control housing on the left side to accommodate the wires as described in the video.
The overall bar width was about 35.5 -36 inches grip to grip end. That seems to be the same as others who have done bars as well. My other bikes with similar set ups are 32 inches grip to grip end, this is largely due to the way the wires are on the Harley and lack of holes on the bars I chose, the stock bars have 4 holes for wiring. Overall it was fairly easy to do. - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ

And by the way, Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year
Looks really cool! Kraus makes some really good looking risers. Also love the new CVO models, but don't love those prices lol.
I've currently got a Low Rider ST, but one day I'm going to get myself a Road King and slap an fxrt style fairing on it. Probably will want some of those Kraus risers too, can't beat em!
Love the idea, Kraus is def awesome, have them on my other bikes and i love them. Just wanted to try something different this time around.
Looks great 👍 that will feel like a new ride new bars I mean lol love the new bike
Thank you, yeah, I’m excited to actually take it for a nice ride. I haven’t actually done that, will definitely be doing a video on that as well.
@@Baggersandbs cool I have a channel too lots of motorcycles stuff mainly the events I go to or hanging out with friends like professional monkey and the thumpers
@@raysmotolife I’ll definitely check it out
Looks really good bro,im playing the waiting game to do anything on this bike
Ty !!! Yea they will have something soon, I’m thinking about redoing the bars and drilling the appropriate holes to see how good I can make them work. I think I can get it to work the correct way ultimately.
Great video! But the Hole Hawg almost took my arm off when it did the crocodile death roll!
And my nose. 😂😂
Hahaha yea i know that feeling all too well. Let me know how your install goes and how you feel about the transition over all after riding it.
Nice setup. Really clean look with that clamshell covering the wires.
Ty !!! It can out decent considering the mods
Looks Very Kool...Great Job.
👌🇦🇺👌
Thank you! Cheers!
Looks 🔥 that red is hitting different
Word !!!
The bolts came out from underneath, we just had to basically turn the handlebars and use them and extension bar with the socket to pull out the bolts for the risers.
Yes, I removed the bottom risers from underneath the triple tree. You’ll find the two bolts that hold the small factory riser on. Then I use the replacement bushings that I put through the top and bottom of the triple tree riser holes. The bolts should be long enough to go up through the triple tree and the bushings into the bottom of the riser. Which risers did you get?
Nice job I like it !!!!! Bummer about the scratch on the bar
I like it. It will probably handle better also.
Absolutely !!!
Bars look great. Not sure if I missed it or not. But if the bar ends are tapered to 7/8” with a 1” clamp the sportster s/nightster/pan America bars should work. With a slightly lower riser and mid/high bend bar would give you more clearance for your screen.
Thank you very much, I don’t remember exactly the taper but overall I mean from my seating position I’m about 511 - 6 foot tall they are right on the money. I actually can see the screen without issue. Overall, I’m pretty pleased with him believe it or not. I still haven’t taken it out for a ride other than sitting on it. But I’ll be doing a video on that as well. To give my review of how the overall feel is, and I’ll actually at that point give you a real world opinion on if there’s any obstruction and how they feel overall.
Thank you. Love the direction your taking the build. Keep doing your thing with the content. 🤙🏽
How did you go at getting bolts off for the riser
I’m getting ready to do this to my new cvo st I’m about 5 8 you think I’d be better off with the 8 inch riser and fly moto bar ?
Yeah, 8 inch Riser should be perfect. You shouldn’t have any obstruction at all.
@@Baggersandbs appreciate it only rode it home from the dealer last week and those stocks put my hands to sleep lol
How much do they interfere with seeing the infotainment screen?
Man that looks nice. Question: I just installed some bars and risers on my 2024 RG and when I powered it on nothing works. It powers on but no blinkers, cant boot into accessory mode... nothing. It's like it's booted into some mode and I can't figure out how to get out of it. Did anything like that happen with you?
No, I definitely need to not have anything like that happened. You might wanna open it up and just recheck your connections. Period. Did find some connections from the factory that actually came loose while taking it apart. And they actually came loose with zero to no effort just from moving the wires around so something might’ve gotten unpluggedduring the rebuilding phase for you. I would just go back over everything even if you gotta take it apart again.
@@Baggersandbs thanks man. Been double checking and triple checking! Driving me nuts. lol
@@brapsquatchI just had an issue and ended up crushing wires and had to repair them. It was blowing the battery fuse that you’ll have to replace as well
@@aaronryan9979 super easy to pinch those wires! I had to do a bunch of soldering. Luckily no blown fuses.
are they a by lower than old stuck one
I would say they are close the same height
How do you get the ignition cover off ? Does it just clip in
Basically you on snap the clamshell and then there’s two screws that need to be removed in order to take it off. You need some thing like a flathead screwdriver. That’s very fine or small to pop off the ignition cover and then underneath there there’s two screws. After that, you should be able to unclip the clamshell totally
Thanks
How far did you have to go in the bar with the 3/4 bit
I wanna say it’s about 4.5 inches. So the center of the heated grip fits in good
@@Baggersandbs how did you get to the bottom of the risers take the stock ones off? looking at mine now it doesn’t seem to have much room and I appreciate the help. Thank you.
Looks really nice however It takes away visibility from the screen... that was one of the reasons why I bought the motorcycle, ( the screen and the fairing) and I wouldn't want to take away visibility.
Thank you, I’m not sure how tall you are but, it doesn’t interfere with any visibility at all for me. I can see the screen completely. I agree I bought the bike for the visibility of the screen and the fairing as well. I would not have done the risers if it interfered I would’ve just went with a more traditional bar. I think it’s also subject to the persons height, and obviously the riser height that they choose.
I was just thinking wirecutter when he said wirecutter 🤣😂
😂😂😂 you never know with mild mannered Donnie. 😂😂😂
@@Baggersandbs 🤣😂
Ty !!! Yea amateur errors lol😂😂
Not at all. That’s the only reason i did them. No line of site interference
Poor workmanship
Noted 👍🏽
