I have the same bars on my 2011 CVO Streetglide. I have a 2005 CVO Electraglide and I put 13 inch Cyclesmith bars on it. The Yaffe bars I really like, but I waited for ever for them to come in and they never did for the 05. I decided to go ahead with the Cyclesmith bars. I like them also.
 As far as the Yaffe bars go, they can be a pain in the butt to get the wires through. They do a terrible job on the inside of the bars. You will have to replace the front on piece brake line and the line up to the master cylinder. You will have to also replace all the throttle cables.
They say their bars are 12 inch but they are really about 13.
Holler if you need anything else.

I was looking at LA choppers twin peaks but, it says not for bikes with hydraulic clutches before 2014. Haven't found out why yet

Yaffe 12 inch monkey bars installation. anyone installed on 04. Any problems?

If you go with Yaffe bars check the holes and chamfers as I have seen sharp edges that needed some addressing. The bars look great when installed.

I have a 2007 Ultra cvo and I was looking to install 10 inch Yaffe monkey bars but some websites say they will not fit. Any help would be great....Thanks in advance.

10" Yaffe originals. Had to make the holes bigger for all the wires, got new brake lines from Magnum Shielding and will probably get new throttle cables this winter so they can go back through fairing comfortably

So there was no problem with the hydraulic clutch fitting ? I heard there might be a clearance issue.

On my 05, I had to use a special version made to work with the hydraulic clutch.  I imagine your 04 will need the same.

No, the bars are the same diameter as stock with no steps so, no problems.

Does anyone know I will need to install yaffe 10 monkey bars. Will the clutch line, brake line and throttle cables be long enough ? Also will I need the wire extensions.
Thanks in advance.

I had to replace my brake lines on my 04'. For some reason they put shorter ones on the cvo. You can call Maria, at Magnum Shielding

Is the hydraulic clutch line the same for all Harley hydraulic clutches?  I need to find an extended line for my 13" bars.
