76 nJuly 2016n www.thunderpress.net THUNDER PRESS Hidden agenda The latest means of cleaning up unsightly handlebar wiring and awkward cable routing is the Climax Hand Controls Package by Custom Cycle Control Systems. This setup combines the company's proven Climax Hidden Controls with one of three different handlebar styles, T-Bars, Stealth Bars and Ape Hangers. An engineering marvel, this package houses 100 percent of all wires, cables and lines internally, all exiting through the hollow riser mounts. Each grip serves as a hydraulic reservoir for the brake and clutch, providing plenty of fl uid. The reservoirs use convenient push-pin accessibility (no special tools required) and syringe action fi lling and bleeding (an onboard fi ll funnel is located inside each grip). The left grip is also a clever twist-action dimmer switch. There are nine micro switches that retain all stock control functions plus two extras along with a throttle lock. Supplied in either chrome or black anodized fi nishes, the package sells for $2,499 (no gauges) with various grip styles and end caps avail- able at an additional charge. Custom Cycle Control Systems 866.438.2129 customcyclecontrols.com Lights, cam, action Even as kids we knew one item set any performance-minded vehicle apart from the crowd: "Does it have a cam?" being the pertinent question. That still holds true today and no less important than for Harley's CVO 110" Twin Cam engine. With more to offer than just an extra 7" over the 103" engine, the OEM 110 comes equipped with much larger valves and heavier valve springs. To take advantage of this upgrade, the engi- neers at Zipper's have developed their new Red Shift 587 Cam for CVO-110 Engines. A bolt-in pair of camshafts that sell for $374.95, the Red Shift 587 was specifi cally designed for the 110" CVO providing improved torque across the entire rpm range and over 100 hp at redline without the irritating fl at-lining at 4500 rpm. You already have the looks. Why not tap all the power?

Mounting on either side at the lower edge of the shark-nose fairing in place of the stem-mounted OEM units, these te ardrop, dimpled units are machined with sweeping accents along the sides.

Aeromach USA 800.990.9392 aeromach.ne t When less is more Several years ago Danny Gray Motorcycle Seats introduced their innovative Independent Suspension Technology line of seats. The "IST" design was revolu- tionary in its approach to reducing the compression and body shock encountered when using a traditional motorcycle seat pan. This was accomplished by elim- inating conventional sections of the seat pan and replacing them with anatomi- cally-engineered cutouts, reducing pressure points on the tail bone and prostate areas of the body (i.e., the "taint"). Recently added to that proprietary lineup is the Buttcrack Solo with IST. The result is a sleek design that fea- tures a black, top-grain leather seating section with matching black vinyl side panels and a sculpted lumbar area. Available to fi t a wide variety of Harley- Davidson models, call for fi t- ment and pricing. Danny Gray Motorcycle Seats 888.443.5516 dannygray.com
