The All things ROAD KING SPECIAL THREAD

When I first got my RK in 2022, I was still knocked in the dirt from going a few f
rounds with COVID. I knew I really wanted the turn signals moved off of the handle bars and since I was changing the bars, I did the signal move at the same time. The biggest drawback was the scarcity of parts. I initially added the Hogworkz signals and kept looking for parts and buying when I could. Well, my front end is finally done!

Hey guys. Getting ready to switch my bars over (FINALLY!) from 16” apes to a riser/bar setup. I am sicker than hell right now, so if I ramble, my apologies.
Going from the 16” apes (previous owner installed) to 9.5” pullback risers from thrashin with their high bend bar. I started to read a little and noticed there was a cover that I may need. Linked below. Problem is, 18 weeks for shipping!! I’m screwed if I need that. But here’s the thing, I can’t really tell if I need it. How would I know?
Here are some pics. Please disregard the dust. Wound up doing some remodeling in the house and had to make some cuts in the garage. She’ll be cleaned up this week.
So do I need that riser cover then? Are there any aftermarket options that would work so I don’t have to wait the 18 weeks?
Honestly, it wouldn’t be that big of a deal, and I would wait, but I keep throwing a code that indicates there is a broken wire in the bars. They gotta go.
Thanks for the help, yall.

Regardless, thanks y’all for the help. After an extensive search, I was able to find 2 in the state of NY. One happened to be a dealer 1.5 hrs away. Made the trip and have the goods.
Just yesterday I saw someone post the same thing on Facebook. Dealers around him have no stock, and won’t for 18 weeks or longer. While dealers in other areas/states, do. But Harley says they cannot sell outside their area, and no longer allowed to ship. **** sucks. But, that’s the way it is right now. Oh well.

Maybe. Or I could ask the folks right here on this very forum, with the same exact bike I have. After all, that’s what these forums are about. Regardless, thanks y’all for the help. After an extensive search, I was able to find 2 in the state of NY. One happened to be a dealer 1.5 hrs away.

Man, you are not wrong. Took both switch covers off, and they broke BOTH tabs when installing these bars originally, Each one of them had the little crack right down the middle. And of course, just touching them snapped them. Unreal. Guess I’m in for another $400 for shitty switches. What a racket.
Edit: Went and looked again. Looks like it is just the left one broken. Yeehaw, half the price. I think I might try the lighted switches at this point. See if I can get them to work. What’s to lose?
