You will need to file the nubs off the throttle housing and brake or drill holes in the bars. Takes five seconds with a dremel. I suggest filing so you can adjust them where you want.



The windshield is only for the cold winter days. I have a jimbo shield on her now.

file the nubs off? like an indention where the brake and throttle sit on the OEM bars?

 

[PalmStateCrawler]

Its actually the kill switch/starter housing and the throttle housing that have a nub on them that goes into holes in the stock bars to keep them in place. If you want, you can keep them on and drill holes in the new bars for them to sit in but it is easier to just file them off. Others and I have had no problems with them moving/rotating as long as you tighten them back up upon installation. Easy job, nothing to worry about. The only tedious task is rerouting the throttle cables. It took me about an hour to relocate all the stuff I had on my bars to the new bars.



This is the order that worked best for me- brake lever, kill switch/starter housing, throttle, clutch mount, lightswitch housing, grips and brushguards. I then added my random stuff like the 12v outlet, ram mount and windshield hardware. Hope this helps your transition to new and better bars a smooth one.

next question. are the stock cables for brake clutch throttle and kill switch long enough to mount on the pro taper bars





how much higher are they than the stock bars? I need them to be 2-3 inches higher on the ends

 

[PalmStateCrawler]

Everything is long enough. Throttle cables need to be re-routed to the front. And I am sure you will be pleased with the increased height. Not sure about the exact height difference but it is around 2-3. Dont worry about it, you'll love em'.

looking at amazon for 54.99 + shipping. are there any better sources for these bars?

 

[PalmStateCrawler]

Look at powersportsuperstore.com That is where I order most of my stuff from and they usually have the best price.

 

[YTWTX]

got a coupon code for them?

These are the ones I ordered for $44. The ones on amazon are about $2 cheaper. Not sure about the shipping on amazon but its around $7 from powersportsuperstore.

what year TW do you have PalmStateCrawler?...i have a 2000 and didn't have to do any filing with mine.



edit: just saw that you have a 2010...so i guess when they did the minor redesign this must be one of the changes

 

[YTWTX]

any links to a diagram or schematic of the wiring and assembly of the bar farkles?

those look like trusk bark buster? did you have any problems mounting those on the protaper bars. Do you think the medium rise would be better for a guy around 5'10 or 5'11 or just get the high one and forget it?



Thanks

I'm 5'10 and the hi bars are perfect! ;-)

Tusk d-flex have worked great. I have had to bend them back into shape after a few hard falls. Might as well get the high bars. You wont regret it and I guarantee thet won't be TOO high!
