14" Burly Bars on my 2007 SERK
« on: May 15, 2012, 11:37:10 AM »

Well, I finally figured out what's been causing my back pain--the wrong bars on my bike!

I have settled on the 14" Burly Bars for my 2007 SERK, but have no clue what cables to buy.  I have people to install everything, but want to be sure that I have the proper cables, etc., when they come to do the exchange.

Please, has anyone done 14" apes on their 2007 SERK?  If so, how did you handle the cables, etc?

Thanks so much!!

Hello All,
I am trying to gather up all of the necessary cables, etc., for changing my bars from stock to 14" ape hangers.  I really love the Barnett Platinum series and the Goodridge Platinum series, but they don't know what measurements will work because the CVO is a "rare" bike.
Please--I need help...does anyone know of a mechanic who specializes in CVOs and would know?  How about anyone who has done their own changeovers, or even paid someone and has the measurements from their invoice?
Thank you SO much for any help you can give.

typically no change in length for 10" so for 14" i would say +4 on the cables "should" work

I can't help with the cable question but I would like to see how the apes look when your finished. I would like to change the bars on my 03 and I'm trying to decide how tall to go.

I ended up going with 12-1/2" Wild 1 bars. All new cables, risers and clamps. A local shop did it for me for about $1000.00. I love the way it turned out. Much more comfertable.
