Eqcons, I know you had yours done by someone else. Did they have to get longer hydraulic lines and wires to do the job. How much time did they quote you for labor.

[waynel]

No, did them myself, Wayne.  No hydraulic lines or wiring was required.

how much time did you spend doing the job?

About 4 hours.  It's not difficult - I followed the instructions (with pics) on the HDForums site http://www.hdforums.com/forum/new-rushmore-models/941239-installing-2-pullback-bars-flhtk-pics-included.html

I know on previous bars they suggested cutting a little of the end off the bar on the left side to accommodate the heated grip switch.  Did you have to do that.

Nope!

Installed  LaChoppers 10". Took about 5 hours.  Namz 4" extension kit. Stock break and clutch lines.  Could have installed the 12" and still used the stock lines.

I like the look of those. Do you have heated grips ?  Can't tell by the pics.

[Blueprint]

Yes It has heated grips.

Blueprint, very nice looking bars. Are they the Bagger Twin Peaks? Are you satisfied with the hand position and overall comfort?

Rick, the are the 10" bagger twin peak ape, I ordered them from West End Motorsports.   This is the second bike I installed them on and really like the feel and position. They relieve my lower back stress a a lot. 
FYI if you are going to install yourself be ready to eliminate the TBW and heated grip connectors.  They will not pass through the mitered corner.  I learned my lesson on the first bike a year ago.....

Just about to install my Chubby 578 bars, did anyone who has installed the 578 bars have to cut a bit off off the left side bar end?
They say on the wild1 website you may need to cut 3/8" off left side so it butts up to where the bar broadens to 1 1/4".
