Bar Removal

Previous | Home | Next

Every other description of removal of the handlebars on an ElectraGlide included removal of the radio to access the clamp bolts. I decided to simply remove the risers from the triple clamp. It worked fine, but the picture I took didn't come out.

Visualize only two bolts (one for each riser) that are accessible from under the top triple clamp, using an 11/16" socket. Remove the two bolts to release and the entire handlebar and riser assembly slipped right out. There's a ground wire and some washers that come off with the risers. I was careful to reassemble later in the same sequence.

This picture shows that I took the bar assembly out with the key-lock block still in place. I should have removed the lock block first. I DID remove it for reassembly.
