Replace original handlebars with Attitude bars. 2016 F3 Special

[Badco149]

I would like to replace the handlebars on my new 2016 F3 Special Limited. It looks like it is pretty basic but with the heated grips and other accessories I a not sure of the complexity. Is there a video or document that shows how to do this. I am somewhat mechanical. Or is this something you recommend I go to dealer and have them do?

Thanks

It's a very easy job. The dealer allows less than 30 minutes to change them.

You actually won't even be messing with the grips/controls. They separate from the bars as complete units when you remove the upper and lower caps. Just put a blanket over the bodywork to protect the paint cuz you need to lay them out of the way while you R&R the bars. There are guide pins on both the bars and the control/grip assemblies to orient everything. You will get all new hardware, with pre-applied locktite etc if it is an actual BRP accessory....

I have not used the attitude bars per se but I did do this job switching to the drag bars. :yes:

Hi The windshield is the BRP Tall Boy. I just installed it a couple weeks ago. I like it much better then the low boy that came stock.

Thank you very reassuring. I have replaced the windshield and added the back seat rest and that went well. So I will give this a try.
