Made the right choice
I went back and forth on what set of bars to buy for my 2023 Street Glide Special. I picked these in the 12" black. I did the install myself.All in all the install was easy. The hardest part is the fly by wire. You have to decide on pulling out the wiring that is pre-installed and try to feed your OEM one back through the bars OR you can use the pre-installed one and cut the OEM one and splice the tail end back on the the OEM one after removing all the extra wiring you do not need.I original thought I would pull the pre-installed one out and just install the OEM one. After getting the bars I could tell it was going to be very difficult to pull the wiring out, then unpin the OEM one and feed it through.So I decided on the cutting and splicing option. They do supply nice splices that you heat up and shrink to the wires. You just want to leave about 3-4 inches of wire when you done with shorting the OEM one. Then you just plug it into the pre-installed wiring and your all set.On the 12" bars no need to extend the clutch or brake lines, you just reposition them in the fairing.You will get some movement in the bars if you do not replace the OEM riser bushings with some quality aftermarket solid ones. This has nothing to do with this brand of bars, it would be best to do with any brand you install. Raising the height gives you more leverage and you are able to create that movement because the other bushings are rubber.I hope this information is helpful as I know it would have been for me.

14” prewired bars on street glide
Fast shipping. Awesome upgrade to 14” prewired bars. Rerouted clutch and brake cables, perfect fit.No instructions for the included hardware, figured out just had to cut end connectors off the prewired TBW leaving it in the bar and cut down existing TBW to 4”. Spliced them back together with heat gun and included solder sleeves (convenient).

Be aware wires may not be pinned in the connector correctly!
Profit looked great everything plugged up installed easily. Problem after putting everything back together was wires in the plug for the throttle were crossed. Causing the bike to not be able to accelerate. This led to me have to cut and solder wires. Causing delays and trouble shooting. What was a 2.5 hr job turned into a 5 hr job. Once corrected everything ran great. 14” was the perfect fit. Just beware purchasing you may encounter issues resulting in wires having to be cut, solder and heat shrink.

Very upsetting.
Ordered handlebars according to my year, make and model of my bike. Received them and opened box they were beautiful, heavy duty, well made and shiny. That where the happiness ends. Went through all the trouble of taking my bars off and when trying to install the new ones, the wires had the wrong connections on the throttle side. Now had to replace old bars , when doing that I accidentally pinched a wire, so the whole dashboard was dead. Finally got it figured out and back and running but went through a lot of trouble for nothing. Waiting for a refund.

Bars look great, zero installation instructions.
Quality appears to be great. Install wasn't horrible, took about 3 hours total. Several good youtube videos for reference. The splicing was a little tedious but I was afraid of damaging the words if I tried to re-pull. As another mentioned, I had to grind down 2 spots on the ignition trim for it to fit flush, 2 min with a burr bit. I'll update if anything changes, but so far I am pleased. These are 14" on a street glide special, did not need clutch/brake extensions with simple re-routing.

Fit and work perfectly.
Bought for my 2015 ultra classic, installed very easily, the throttle by wire connector is NOT the same as what’s on my bike(small green 6pin) luckily I was able to extend and reuse my factory tbw harness. The clutch side harness is correct, and was able to re-route and reuse my factory clutch and brake hoses. Highly recommend if you’re on a budget.
