i think the set up looks great- the flat black with the glossy controls accents the inner fairing well IMO. great video man.

Nice! I love your content! I just ordered the Original Garage Risers and Thrashin handlebars. Thrashin made bars specific for the new '24 since the throttle is different. I went with the OG risers because you can tuck wires in risers for a cleaner look.

@OffWeekGarage 3 ай бұрын

I saw Thrashin’ put those new bars out, they look good! And I like the fact you can hide the wire, I saw that style I believe on the Arlen Ness ones too!

Great video! Looking at the same setup. You did mention these were 10” pullback risers. Just hoping to reconfirm that. Also, I assume that is the 1” ODI bar since the stock perch clamps work? Thanks!

Yes 10” pullback risers, as for the bar clamp size I’m sorry I cannot say for sure for a few days, I’m away for work til Wednesday. I can get back to you on it then!

After living in Kent for 31 years, i just moved to Mobile in October 2022. Have you ridden the North Cascades highway yet? If not, it's definitely a ride you will love. Especially on that new bike. Just bring some gear to stay warm, it's quite a bit higher than any other pass, so even in summer it can be a little chilly compared to temps down below. Kick ass ride though for sure.

Great video as always. Love the setup. Curious if you could pull the fork tube black covers of all the way with the triple tree off. Got hit by road debris on the right side. Hard to fix without taking the cover off.

@OffWeekGarage 3 ай бұрын

The lower tree blocks that, so you’d have to pull that too, it’d be much easier to remove the front wheel I’m afraid..

What size do you recommend for a dude with reach that’s 6ft 4 ?? Need advice for my 2024 road glide

@OffWeekGarage 3 ай бұрын

Man that is a good question, I am by no means an expert and the best person to give advice on this, but if I had to guess I’d say a 10” riser with minimal pullback and either midbend or highbend bar depending on your preferred hand height. Fortunately, you have a ton of adjustability with just different bar options and rotating them in the risers. My recommendation would be to get in to some dealers or bike nights and sit on as many setups you can, take into account what seats they have as well since that’ll play a role! Good luck!⚡️

@roadglidehoss 3 ай бұрын

How do you like that seat? Does it move you back any? I've been thinking about getting it

@OffWeekGarage 3 ай бұрын

I did a seat review video on it, it’s great for around town and hour to two hour rides but passenger doesn’t like it due to being stiff and narrow, so stock seat for any sort of distance!

@Kickin_it_671 3 ай бұрын

Did your front wheel try to roll after taking triple tree off?

@OffWeekGarage 3 ай бұрын

Yes, you have to have it on the ground or at least supported, and you’ll have to reset the fall away with the steering head bearings with that T45 bolt. I went 12 ft lbs but didn’t want to include that in the video since everyone’s will be different

Kraus can suck it. riser they sent me had metric bolts forced into standard holes. Took a week to negotiate a return. A week to ship, a week for them to decide to ship me another one, and a week to ship back. Then they didn't even ship with bushing or hardware with the 2nd riser. Amateur mistakes and poor customer service. I installed a DMR destroyer riser while waiting. Much lighter and better-looking part. Kraus is just an overpriced gimmick.

Wow I’m sorry to hear your experience was such a shitshow with them. I know myself and many others are very happy with them. But I also know what it’s like to trust a product based on other people’s experience and then getting a bad one yourself, it’s infuriating. Glad you ended up happy with what you got in the end!
