I"ve been in the industry for 10 years and this is the first time that this has been explained in a way that is completey "dummy-free". Thanks Todd and LowBrow!
I swapped the handlebars out on my CB750 for the first time last summer. Creating the switch wire holes with a hand drill and a dremel was a huge pain in the ass but I got it done. Do people really call and complain that the grips they ordered are different sizes? That's funny (and embarrasing). Sounds like something I would've done when I first started.
What a cool guy... i just got my first bike in a long long time 30 plus years I would say, and I love the feeling of riding it. It’s got ape hangers and even though I like them I kind of want something lower but aggressive My bike is a 2004 Suzuki Volucia 800 What do you recommend? I want something badass
I got a 2002 FLSTC that had ape hangers on it I have only owed Shovelheads. I went to swap out these bars n and it turned into a dog and pony show. I just want some nice stock handlebars but all four sets I have don't work. Sorry I ever bought the twin cam I have two I am selling the Road King so I can tract down a good Evo.
How bout a video on risers that dont slip or how tos on how to stop apehangers from moving . I have seen some bagger clamps that have built in set screws, I need something like that for a softail that clamp where the top clamp is expose chromed and nice.
Yes they do but they slip, I have 18 inch aps when I hit a bump, or when I try to push the bike around with the bars there is to much leverage. I would drill and pin them but all wires are inside the bars ,. This is a common problem I have read countless complaints. There are a number of micky mouse solutions out there but I would think some would make a set of risers or top clamps with a set screw built in. They do make top clamps with set screws but only for baggers that the clamp is hidden. I want one that chrome and looks nice.
Hm. Perhaps you could slip a piece of sheet metal inside the bar to protect the wiring while you drill two holes on it, then drill and tap short holes on the inside of the clamps to fit a small length of threaded rod? I don't know what exactly you meant by pinning, but this should do the same thing with nothing visible.
i just purchased a new bike and the guy i bought it from put 24 in width handlebars on it. It is comfortable but i felt like slow tight turns seemed a bit more difficult than should be normally. He gave me the stock handlebars with it, however I am not sure if i should put those back on or not seeing how much of a difference it would really make. The new bars have an 8 in rise to them and the height is definitely comfortable.So do you recommend me just getting used to the narrow bars or would swapping it back to stock be better even though they are much lower? thanks
super weird... Next vid I'll make sure who it ever it is says "hey man hit that subscribe button below and point downward in all directions ahahah" Cheers man hope all is well and thanks for the feedback! Take care. - Mikey
I don't need any handlebar info, I'm just stopping in to say Lowbrow is the shit and thanks guys for doing what you do! 😘

Merry XMas idea Todd ⚡️⚡️🔥⛄️
Happy holidays to you and yours!
These videos are more help than you guys can imagine. Thanks a bunch!
Lots of good information that first time builders like me. Been riding for years but now I'm building a scoot from scratch. Once again Thank you .
Just got a 2019 883. Todd is the "ONLY" person who has explained how my new bars might fit....."TIPS" AWESOME!!!!
Excellent video Todd ! You really covered some points that could save some real headaches. Or even injury .
Todd you legend ! Finally someone tells us the centre to centre measurement for Harley triple tree spread ! 3 1/2 inch. Thank you Dude !
In 1971 I bought a 64 Bonnie not knowing a think about it could have used Todd in those days. Mort
I only watch these because Todd 😍
Todd's the man
Todd’s a True Wizard! Thank you Todd
Todd is the coolest!
Thanks, as always, for the education. Can you do a similar discussion of springer forks, their special qualities, problems, and accessories?
blackcat9volt I'll look into what we carry and what we can talk about and see if we can make it happen, cheers - mikey
you very smart looking young man great info thanks
You are a mix between triple H and Paul bostaph bro 🤘🤘... your look is cool
Thank for your video!
How do you replace the steering lock on 1973 triumph daytona 500
Good info and definitely saved me a headache. Subscribed.
Thanks Todd, I will check out the site next.
Looking to swap the “mini apes” on my 2020 with some lower ones. Just a drop of about 4” like the other softails have.
Very informative 👍

all the time, everyday...
What's the song at the beginning!!! Sounds badass
Murdock 10" pullback slims with moto or mid bend bars are unbeatable. Period
What would be the torque for the rabbit bars ?

What do you recommend? I want something badass
Nice bars. How would I lower the diameter of my bars? Grips too big.....
why would you cut a slot there when there's already a slot there it's the mirror bracket that won't work and you can't notch it
Very helpful video
Good info from todd

Does your handlebar have knurling?
Yes they do but they slip, I have 18 inch aps when I hit a bump, or when I try to push the bike around with the bars there is to much leverage.
