Changing the handlebars is one of the most common upgrades riders make , and one of the most important as good reach and comfort go straight to safety and handling . Even owning a factory custom , like a Harley CVO model , doesn ' t mean the factory-provided handlebars are comfortable or have the " right " look for everyone . When you replace the handlebars , the cables , brake lines and wiring will almost certainly need to be replaced too , and that can create a multitude of problems , especially if it is a CVO model where the parts may differ from the non-CVO version . Upstate New York based brake line and control cable specialist Magnum Shielding has introduced specific handlebar installation kits for 2008 through present H-D CVO Touring models when 12-inch to 17-inch ape hanger-style handlebars are being installed . These kits will take the guesswork out of locating the correct parts needed for handlebar swaps on CVO bikes , like needing a hydraulic clutch line instead of a clutch cable .
BLACK PEARL for ' 08- ' 12 FLHTCUSE
To cover all the bases , Magnum manufactures two premium Designer Series kits with Signature braids , STERLING CHROMITE and BLACK PEARL , with matching chrome or black chrome plated fittings . Kits are also offered in the XR Stainless product line , with three color combinations allowing the most discriminating customers to find something that will complement their bikes .
