do I need to buy clamps to mount on handle bars on my heritage softail

Absolutely. I have a 07 Fatboy and I went ahead and purchased 2 stainless clamps with a rubber interior to make sure it protected the handle bars. I had a bit of a time mounting the amp itself, but I ended up using metal pipe clamps like you find in the plumbing section at home depot. I threaded them in the amp and mounted it between the front forks and it is out of the way and sits nicely. Hope both of these tips help, I know you didn't ask about the mounting the amp, but I was stumped for about a week. All in all the metal (with the screw tightener) cost roughly $5 for all 4 mounts. Good luck! Great unit, it has a pretty good sound and is loud enough to hear at highway speeds. scott

I would. I ended up mounting the speakers to my windshield mounting brackets. I was a little upset with the directions and hardware that was provided.

Yes, just make sure the levers you have are for V-Brakes, not Cantilevers - depending on the year of your bike. Otherwise they will feel "mushy."

They are not clamps at all, but actually spring loaded levers that you pull away from the basket to install on rack. I've had this mounte on 2 various racks and it appears to have at least 2/12 " width distance fully extended on each side. Just make sure the rubber clamps line up on rack; or it will move around a little with heavy load. It's very sturdy and springs have a lot of tension, so once it's on your bike it's there to stay until you release it to carry in the store. Nice quick release rack basket.

If you have hollow standard sized bars yes. You can also undo the mirror clamp, remove the bar end insert and clamp directly to the handlebars

You are definitely missing the bolts that would tighten down the clamps. The grips are pretty much useless without them. Contact Amazon asap.

Most bike come with the mounts on them. If you do not have them, then you will need them to mount.Thank you

No it requires an ugly shim. I just sent a question to Tate labs about the Barfly, as i have several Classic road bikes and it looks horrid with a shim. The Standard I.S.O. size 25.4 mm, is the Stem Clamp size used on the vast majority of newer bicycles with upright handlebars, and most steel drop bars. I guess the size should be 26.0 and 26.4 mm that the Italian and some aftermarket drop bars use, and a shim provided for the The Standard I.S.O. size 25.4 mm would be best...

This little guys should work on just about any style bike you have. the clamps should fit around you bars with no issues.

If I remember correctly, you have to mount the tires, seat, handle bars, and pedals. I think everything except the pedals and the handle bars had a quick release clamp. The handle bars came with an allen wrench to straighten them and tighten them

I mounted mine to my handlebars, using a clamp bracket I made out of the carrying bracket that came with a cheap Bell cable lock. It works great and took me about 5 minutes to put together.

2-piece clamps, 2 bolts per clamp. assemble all parts before tightening and aligning. If there are control lever clearance issues, use PVC pipe or similar to create room for levers. This may necessitate using longer bolts than those provided, but the result is a sturdy installation. Provide me with e-mail address and I will send pix of my XT250.

I would think that handlebar mounts would certainly be available from the manufacturer. Here is the URL for the website where you can order spare parts: http://www.shop.cygolite.com/

it really depends on how you want to mount them. I move my grips in on both sides of the handlebars just enough to bolts the units to the bars. You'll need to cut the opening in the ends of your grips tho,. If you're more fastidious, you'll want a bar-end kit and these do not come with that. Some motorcycles come with pre-tapped handlebar ends to make the process easier.

That depends on the diameter of your bar clamp: I'd recommend buying spacers. (this handlebar is thinner/intended for motorcycles)

The clamp and the seat I purchased was not compatible with the stationary bike that I bought it for, so I really can not answer this question. Sorry!!

You can get o-rings at your local hardware store. I cut a hose clamp/ worm clamp in half. Then with some nippers remove a couple of the "ladder rungs" leaving one for the hook. Then place a small piece of old tire tube around the handlebars to keep the assembly from drooping. Tighten clamp snug. This is my super tough mount. Crashes well.

I have mine mounted on a bicycle with that same kind of stem and handlebar clamp. You should have no problems.
