Default Fatboy bars

What's a fair price just for labor to switch out 504's for Road King 2 bars on a 2003 Fatboy? I'm in So Cal. Thanks.

Do you want internal wiring? Do you need to put new cables and wiring on? There are a lot of factors to take into consideration.

I'm replacing 504 bars that have internal wiring so yes I will want the same setup on the RK II's. I've purchased 4" extended throttle cables ( 2 ) and an extended brake cable and I believe the wiring will probably need to be lengthened so the gas tank will have to come off. The clutch cable will not have to be changed I'm told by Harley.

I can tell you what I was quoted by my local HD dealer. Are you sitting down? $900. Thats just for the labor, buy the bars and cables from them? $1900. And they wonder why they dont get more modification jobs.

Ended up using Mobile HD Tech, Troy Morgan, and it's done. Yes Harley would have charged about $900. Troy charged $400, the job is finished, and it's perfect.

For Yrs I've read in here that most Indy's and dealerships charge from $800 up to change out the bars. All pends on what U use and want.

Labor rate is why I won't pay anyone to do anything except engine work and mounting tires.

That $900 number must be pretty standard. They quoted me the same thing to swap over from stock to beach bars.
