Pix 1 Shows the pins on the bars by the control area. There's also a pin on the cross section under the clamp

13 and 14 bars have no step down on the CVO King from my understanding, and also pinned.  Changed the Bars out to 14" Monkey Bars on my 13 CVO King. I had to wait to get them as CVO has the HYD clutch, plus the now no neck down at the riser.  Plus I wanted to run heated Grips.

I am pretty sure I will change the Bars on the CVO Road Glide Ultra, the stock ones come back to far for me.  Plus I like my 14" Apes, have them on my 12 CVO road glide also.

What do the pins do?

What do the pins do?

i would guess to index the controls, with the internal wiring you dont want to rotate them to far or you pinch the wires.

would also guess non of the aftermarket bars will have them and doubt it will be an issue by not having them.


the bottom of the stock bars on the 13 SERGC have to small embossed arrows to indicate dont rotate past this point

That is pretty much what I was told the pins were for.  On my 12 SERG the Dealer Pinned my Apes, as they have lots of leverage and they will move.  You do have to be careful with internal wiring.

Pretty much right on. If you look at the pix of the old bars, there's a hole in front of the bars that wires go through. If you rotate the controls too much, you take a chance of damaging the wires.

$48000 plus for a new CVO Roadglide-I think not.  The 09 Screamin' Eagle will do just fine.

Yikes - pretty soon they'll cost as much as a modest house at this rate...

Is that the Canadian price?  Ouch.
