Well got it done this morning and took it for a ride and they feel great.  Here are the part #'s for the pieces used to build the front brake line.

1) 03-6051 10mm straight banjo
1) 03-6121 24" hose
1) 03-6047 90degree brake line (joins upper hose to tee)
1) 49-8411 3/8 Tee (biker choice part)
2) 03-6116 18" hose
2) 10mm 90degree banjo

all part numbers are goodridge except the tee.

Sweeeeet, Magoo....Glad you like them, but then you already knew you would...

For the brake lines, I just ordered the HD 2" extended "kit"...basically a longer line from the master to the "tee", which on the HD kit is a round chrome disc, and two lines for the brakes.  There was a Goodrich tag on the lines...maybe the same thing?  At any rate, it was a decent price, and it all fit, so I'm not complaining.

Yes they are sweet with the seat position they are a little different than the SEEG which has a much lower seat. just posted the part# for the brake line for anyone that might want to do it them selves,  I went to the shop twice before i got it right.

Has anybody done this to the 07 CUSE2?  If so, same parts requirements and install procedure?

Thanks,

Mark

I really like the look of the new bars, and the riding position is much better for me.  I have not given it a true test yet, but I feel certain the riding position will alleviate the shoulder neck pain I got after riding a few hours with the stock bars...I was having to reach too far forward and down to reach things.  We'll see...

I get that pain too on the right side mostly............. I'm thinking this is a definite maybe here......... are you coming to Bike Week so that I could possibly see these first hand??

rob...nope, not coming to Daytona.  It is impossible for me to get away from work this time of year.  I'll be happy to provide any information to you that will help though.  There is a chance I might be in Myrtle Beach in May, but not sure at this point.  Might just go to the Redneck Riviera....Gulf Shores/Destin/Panama City.

I can say without doubt that I REALLY like the 575 bars.  Not only do they look better on the bike, but the riding position, along with the Corbin seat, has made a huge difference for me.

I'll be there. Have them on Bessie. My body feels 100% better with them than when I had Harley's pull back bars on.

[mr_magoo]

With the 575 on the bike it is just more natural position for riding.

How tall are each of you who put on these bars?

I'm 6' 3" and REALLY miss my Heritage bars I put on my old Road King.  My hands are lower and my wrists are "cocked in" about 25 to 34 degrees when gripping the ultra's handlebars.

Mark

Mark, I am 6'2" and my hand position used to be about as you describe, further complicated by going with a solo seat which pushed me back an inch or so.  The 575 bars cured all of that, they are great, extremely comfortable and fairly simple to install, just take your time.

Mark...I'm 5'8".  The hand/wrist position was worth installing them to me, not to mention the arms.

It's really not a hard job, just a bit aggravating at times.  Just allow yourself plenty of time...like the better part of a whole day.

Terry (and all),
Need some info and advice.
Stopped by the dealer Sat and placed my "goodies" on order for the B&O (yeah I'm getting a bit more optimistic now), including the Wild 1 Chubby Bars (WO 575).  Parts guy just called me and said he had been in touch with Wild 1 and they said these bars won't work on a CUSE because of the hydraulic clutch ? Whatupwitdat??  First I asked if there was any difference between the '06 and '07.  He checked the book and said no.  So I told him that several folks had installed these bars on their bikes without any issue.  He said the issue is an indentation (or flat spot) on the near the left grip for the clutch master cylinder.  Wild one said it's like the one they put on the right side for the brake master cylinder.  I told him I'd check with all the smart guys on here and see what the collective brain trust says.
So Terry, my first thought is you probably put your bright, shiny Chubby bars in a vice and flattened where you needed to .  Then said naw, TC wouldn't do ANYTHING like that.
This has me puzzled.  I seem to recall that others with '07s have done or had this install done.
Any help will be greatly appreciated,
Tony

Tony...they're all full of chit...the indentation is no longer necessary on the new bars.  It is a tapered end now.  The clutch master cyclinder will go right on without any issue whatsoever, as will the brake.  The only parts necessary to change the bars are the riser clamp and the 2" extended brake lines.

All wires, cables, etc will work as is.  I got my bars from Jim (hd-dude) and they are the new style without the indention.  I ordered the clamp from a local Indy shop, and the brake lines right out of the P&A catalog from Zanotti's.
