#73610 jetmechanic (User) If you don't ride,then you don't know! Expert Boarder Posts: 404 an ass kicker with the big bar engine guard 8 Months ago   Hey Fellas, I installed the Yami big bar engine guard tonight, and I was under the impression that the bar would work with the floorboard extensions. I had to remove my extensions to make the bar work. It was hitting on the brake pedal side. Of course the loctite I used worked really well on the floorboard bolts and was almost cursing myself. Anyway, finally got it installed and put on the Kury. iso wings and am ready to ride.Thanks for listening, my wife wouldn't understand   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #73611 Musky (Moderator) Doc took Grams beer Moderator Posts: 13188 Re:an ass kicker with the big bar engine guard 8 Months ago   I have the big bar with ext's. Do your ext's allow you to tilt your boards??   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #73613 jetmechanic (User) If you don't ride,then you don't know!

Fwd. 3in. and up just a few degrees. I can see from the pictures that yours tilt up a bit more than mine.   Logged     Last Edit: 2008/04/03 22:43 By jetmechanic.     The administrator has disabled public write access. #73614 Musky (Moderator) Doc took Grams beer Moderator Posts: 13188 Re:an ass kicker with the big bar engine guard 8 Months ago   The few degrees is what hurt the install. Mine allow around 15 degrees and the brake clears the bar. I actually like the tilt that much. My feet feel more planted on the boards.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #73617 jetmechanic (User) If you don't ride,then you don't know! Expert Boarder Posts: 404 Re:an ass kicker with the big bar engine guard 8 Months ago   I liked the extensions. Maybe later on I can get a different set of extensions. The install was a pain. I had to squeeze the bars together to get them to line up. Then I had to get the bolts tight, then take them out, one at a time and try to slide the washer between the frame and bar.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #73670 Pop Rivet (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 2757 Re:an ass kicker with the big bar engine guard 8 Months ago   Maybe a pain... but did you notice the thickness of the metal where the bars mount to the frame...3/8 " Lindy bars that mount to the floorboard mounts ..the metal is only 1/4 " thick... Check out Barons ....how thick are the mounts I will let yall be the judge which bars are going to buckle first..   Logged     Last Edit: 2008/04/04 13:34 By Pop Rivet.   2009 Ultra Classic HD...2005 Silverado Road Star Listen to the Road Star   The administrator has disabled public write access. #73693 billjr (User) RIDE LIKE YOUR INVISABLE!!!!!!!!!!!

I ended up wrapping a cord and twisting with a piece of wood to get them to come together... also ended up spot gluing the washers on to the bar so that they would stay put as i slid the bar in and around... agrivating to be sure... but I sure like the looks of them!   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access.
