Not sure if CCW or PIT are carrying longer cables, but they are pretty standard pieces. If they can't help you should be able to match something up at a local shop or find something online.
Also, the Frisco bars are 1". The Heist is a 7/8 bar. You'd also need new switch housings (or lose all the switches), levers, throttle and risers. Lowbrow has the Biltwell Window bars in 7/8. A little different but cool none the less.

Thanks guys, I thought Biltwell made them both in 1" and 7/8". The Windows are pretty cool too, I like that narrow tall look.
I'm just trying to plan ahead a little here and make sure I can find the parts to complete my vision before I pull the trigger on the bike.
do it man the bike is an awesome canvas.Quote:

Had the bike out for 5 miles around my town. Let me tell you she pulls and sounds awesome. the G&B shear power oil in her makes up so much a difference. The shifts are clean and she holds 55 at a pretty even rev none too high and wants to give you more. Any doubts I had that at taking her to Americade have faded. Definitely a fun ride.
I do have to say that its night and day compared to the df250rtb I had.
My brother, The HD rider, also took it out and approves. His only complaint that its too light, compared to his 1600cc Street Bob, and he didn't like the seat (didn't have his butt grove) LoL
Thats it for now, just glad its home.
lookin good!
Looks great in the light Gardo. I pretty much had the same bike as your brother and once I sat on the Heist I said holy crap this thing is light! That's what I liked about it though, the HD Dyna weighs in at around 650lbs which is an additional 400lbs compared to tha Heist. I'm really digging the bare bones look of the bobber, after chopping and getting rid of some other things it would be even lighter.
Yeah, a nice looking bike.
Well, looks like if I want my bike, i'm going to have to go get it myself from the freight co. they want a forklift, or no delivery. Bummer...Quote:

Just put 80 miles on the bike. Good ride was doing 50 easily and I'm 250. Hope with the lil extra hp n tuning 55 for cruising. That's our highway speed anyway. Great riding now need more nice days.
I did 70 miles on the bike today, had some technical difficulty with the mini cam so the video is almost nonexistent will need to plow through it and cut something together.
Had the bike cruising at one point at 60 and had more to give. Did mostly back street riding and some highway. My brother took it easy on his Street Bob so I could keep up LOL
the bike rode awesome and handled very well. Need to adjust the chain tomorrow and check all the bits that need to be tightened down (Locktite)
most of the day was spent at 40-50 and the bike felt great. All reservations about the ride to Americade are gone.
We started off in town and just took the roads here and there and made our way through to some nice scenery, and ran into a couple of other riders we packed up for about 5 -7 miles and broke off in our intended directions. Stopped off at a Hooters for a Beer and wings, the girls loved the Widow. hit the road again and we jumped on state hwy 46 for 10 miles then took the back roads to my brother's place. Hung out for 30 min and came home.
the inaugural run was good took it easy but pushed it to see what it could do. I liked it
I actually wore my halfy and goggles today to see how they felt, man my full face will be sitting unless it gets cold out
Awesome. I got my Hiest this weekend. Should have the MSO this week. It's a Sharp looking bike. Can't wait to get it legal and take a ride around town.Quote:

Hit one of the highway to get the feel of it and took her up to a comfortable 60 and held it there for a bit till I cut off and tooled around some of the busier roads.
All in all the more I ride the more comfortable I feel with the bike and on the road. hopefully I can get again this week. took Friday and next week off to get some more ride time in while the wife and the ween are at school and work.
Hopefully I can get the camera situated and get some ride video in.
So did you get the MSO yet???Quote:
