Best "How-to" video I've ever viewed!

Hello, Thank you so much for taking the time to post this video - saved me $400 in labor $$ !

I did it! 🎉 It took about 6-7 hours of work but that’s typical for me bc of second guessing myself. I kept going back and rewatching each piece as I went so the time line is on me. I didn’t have the work space either so I was make shifting that. Ultimately this video saved me about $600- $750 on my Indian shop installing. Word of advice to everyone on the 2020 Roadmaster Dark Horse, the plug that he mentions that goes to the handlebars, it is the one he’s talking about on the left (when facing the bike) but it’s ran through the metal frame to the fairing housing and is zip tied behind it. Remove the right blinker, take the 3 screws out of the fairing plastics on the back & use the needle nose players to twist off the zip tie. You can then pull the whole handlebar harness out of the front. You’ll be relocating that to the top in the middle somewhere bc it likely doesn’t reach back to the original location. Don’t second guess it like me. I have no idea where the ambient air sensor plug came from but it’s got the clip to stick back into the frame somewhere but I can’t find it. No idea how or why I pulled it out.

I was about to go to dealer and get bars put on but after seeing your great video I know I can do this myself. Thank you so much

Excellent! One of the best how to videos I've ever seen. Very smooth as you take us through the process.

My shop quoted $165 per hour for 4-5 hours! Thanks to this comprehensive install video i'm bolting on my new 6" Apache Baggers (shipped like grease lighting by the way) on my 2021 Chieftain Dark Horse in my garage as we speak. I smeared a little dielectric grease on the taped up portion of my pull wire to make that sharp bend go a little smoother on the bulky throttle side. Thanks!

Excellent how-to. Thanks! I'm actually putting stock bars back on, but it's the same process.

Bought and installed these. Totally changed the bike and the video completely helped with the install. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Just want to thank you for the video. This was an amazing help. I installed the 8" Klockwerks Ergo bars on my 2018 CDH. It took me a total of about 3 hours. The worst part was the right side wiring through the bars....after that, it was a snap. Thanks, Adam

Thank you for all the effort you guys put in this video. Very detailed. I was a bit surprised that the new handle bars cover a bit of the gauges.

Thank you for the video. You made it so easy. I can’t believe I did it all by myself with your video. 👍🏼

This was a fabulous how to video. With the info in your video I was able to install new KST bars on my new 2024 Indian Chieftain Dark Horse. And with the money I saved doing it myself this video convinced me to go buy a DeWalt cordless ratchet.

Thank you Ret and team for this awesome video, well done and thorough. I installed the +6 Apache Baggers on my 2020 Roadmaster Dark Horse, took just under 5 hours to complete. It went exactly as the video, other than having to take the front fairing off because of the smaller headlight. Thank you again for the great video and the badass bars!

Ive watched alot of How to Videos, and yours is Excellent! Makes me wanna go out and buy 6" bars for my 2019 Roadmaster! Thanks!

Great video. Excellent step by step. One not, I have a 2019 Chieftain Dark Horse and I had to remove the fairing cover to access the wiring harness.

Got 6” on step by step. Thanks for the vid

Got a 17 chieftain and learned a lot, thank you

I’m right in the 17 chieftain limited and this video helped a lot thank you very much

Very good detail in this video I followed this and changed mine in 4 hours going slow and checking video often

Great video. Pulling the wires through is a bear.. got about 2 hours into the wiring now... Trying to figure out how to get past where the wires get stuck. Tempted to remove the ends and try again.

Finally got mine installed today. 2020 Roadmaster Dark Horse, the wiring in the faring was very different because it was all clamped and zip tied together with a small window to work out of. About 7 hour project at the end of the day.

Woww! Super mechanic. Very well explained

Very thorough,thank you

Just did a 17 Roadmaster yesterday and it surely didn’t go as smooth as your install! The 17 had soldered connections at the switch housings so the wires need to be pulled up through leaving the housing intact. The wiring left through after the install is really short and the wiring needs to moved around inside the fairing a bit. The clutch cable need to be rerouted too. It all come together but not as simple as the video. That being said, I’ve done many Harleys and this install is still way better than having to change clutch and brake lines!

I love how the local dealer service dept is saying this install is gonna take them multiple hours to accomplish.

Thank you 👍👍👍👍

Great video

Great video, Thank you. Do you guys sell the longer clutch and brake cable for the 10" bars?

Nice video

Thank you so much ! Very clear and complete. I would like to change my bar on my 2016 RM, and after checking the connections on the handle, I saw there are not the same and not so easy or impossible to disconnected there !! Any other solutions ? Thank you for your help from France. Few year ago, I have done the same job on my HD Road King, I mean I should be able to change it myself... Thierry

Quick question can you not remove the bars with the wiring intact. Because when your installing the new bars. U r still feeding the wires in and out thru the headlight

Had you installed heated grips bed I just bought some heated grips for my 2017 chieftain and I know the bars aren’t pre wired and I have the harness that run through the bars just wondering if I have to remove the whole front of the fairing to run them through the bars

Ill guess all the torque numbers are in paper instructions?

Hey bro was plastic stripped of 12 ga copper are did it have insulation on it

we tightened everything down as far as the bars go but the bars are loose I can move them down with pressure?

Started doing my +6” on my 17 Roadmaster, how much wire is exposed at the base of the bars?

Is this part available?

I am just installing heated grips and contemplating pulling all the wires out and restringing it rather than trying to pull the heat grip harness. Can you pull all wires at once?

what ratchet adapters/bits are you using for this job?

What kind of wrench are you using.

Made by indian ...?

Wish Indian made trikes

Indian makes a fabulous engine in their touring/bagger line. If they can get away from pushrods their in a new maintenance category.
