    installed helibars

    Installed helibars today. It was not too bad the right grip took forever. Still have to bleed lines.
    cables are a little tight. wont be able to try for a while as I am in new York.

    the type brake & clutch fluid is on top of the brake & clutch master cylinder. Stick with the OEM fluid.

    I put type 4 also is there any particular reason why they don't tell you in the instructions to glue the left hand grip back on just to slide on. I did not glue mine on for now.

    What kind of risers did you mount them on? Do you have enough cable and lines? I just installed mine but took the kuryakyn risers off. I'm thinking about putting them back on.

    I'm pretty sure taxfree has Kuryakyn risers on his bike. He had to leave them on due to one of the bolts had a stripped out head and could not remove it. Cables were tight but functional. If I'm wrong, he'll chime in when he and the Pit Bull wake up.
