After doing the install, my right side blinkers stopped working. The running lights work fine. Did I miss a wire or maybe short or ground a wire?
Hi, Allen. We would be happy to assist you; we just need some more information. What is the make/model/year of your motorcycle?
I put Baby Apes on my 08 XL1200C Sportster by using your video. Very well done and APPRECIATED.! I see why it costs so much at the dealership. Took me better part of a week. BUT, I am a Disabled Nam Vet. EVERYTHING takes me 3X as long to do as before. LOL. Just wanted to say THANKS!. I have used other videos, but this one was extra good with all the details. RIDE SAFE, RIDE HARD.
I have a 2005 softail deluxe efi, is this the same procedure used for my bike for installing 14 in mini apes?
Stephen,
A majority of the procedures will be the same or similar. We highly suggest that you have a service manual for reference & that you stay away from any cheaper handlebar options that you may come across. Cheaper, Chinese handlebars often have hard, sharp, edges internally. They are often rusty inside & the holes for wiring harness are drilled too small & need to be opened up with a carbide rasp. If you have any questions as you move forward with the upgrade, let us know. We will do our best to help.
