I love reading all the, "why do you have to...?" comments. As well as the, "I'll pay $1200 at the dealer." Get a book, watch a video. Great video, by the way. You make it look easy.

I have 08 streetglide..do they have plug and ride for that..? I went through this with a friend..I got the 13" rounded bars..he talked me out of doing the meat cleavers because harder to pull wires.

THIS is the difference between a "pro" and an "amatuer" in my opinion, for such a critical "life or death" component, if you don't REALLY know what you are doing (or have a tutor with you), i would NOT fuck with this as an experiment. the $$ or so you will pay a professional, will be WELL worth the peace of mind!
