Biltwell

Ride Well with Biltwell

California based Biltwell is more than just a great helmet company, with great design and great branding - it delivers carefully thought out, well specified ergonomic, feature-rich products that genuinely enhanced the riding experience …



Riserless ‘bars for XL
Well known for its Tyson Risers, this Tyson XL handlebar is a riserless T-bar “that takes high-tech construction and rider comfort to the next level.”
The innovation begins with Biltwell’s exclusive butted and tapered 1-1/8-inch O.D. four-bend handlebar with 1” grip areas. This bar is TIG welded to 1-1/4-inch O.D. uprights in three sizes: 10, 12 and 14 inch rise. TIG welded 1/2 x 13 t.p.i. bungs on 3.5” centers inside both uprights let the handlebars mount to select H-D and aftermarket top trees with removable bar risers. 

The right-side bar end is notched to accept H-D’s TBW module, and the bar is slotted on a CNC mill to accept internal wire routing. Made in 0.120” wall (3 mm) seamless 4130 chromoly material throughout they are precision mitered with TIG welded joints and bungs for strength. They are also available as non-TBW designs - with slots in the handlebar to accept internal wire routing inside the bar/underneath the lever clamps. They are available in a choice of electroplate or show chrome finishes.

Alumicore Grips
Biltwell says its AlumiCore grip system is a radical departure from the brand’s classic ‘less-is-more’ aesthetic and takes high-performance hand controls for Harley-Davidsons to the next level.

“The technical revolution starts with a forged and CNC lathe-turned 6061 T-6 aluminum tube. After precision machining and surface detailing, a Thermoplastic Vulcanizate (TPV) rubber sleeve is installed over the tube’s knurled surface for traction and comfort. This highly UV-resistant material is soft and comfortable, yet extremely durable.
“The right (throttle) side AlumiCore grip comes in two styles: 1 inch I.D. for select stock and aftermarket 2-cable H-D throttles, and another for H-D Throttle-By-Wire technology. The internal gear interface inside the AlumiCore grip for TBW is forged (not simply glued and screwed) into the grip’s aluminum sleeve, so it will never break or disengage from the TBW module’s gear interface. 


“The throttle grip’s machined end cap is removable to make changing and replacing the TPV rubber sleeve fast and easy. The clutch side AlumiCore grip features an internal wedge system on the end cap that expands inside the handlebar to eliminate grip slip and end play. Both grip flanges fit inside stock and select aftermarket H-D hand control pods.
They are available in black electroplate or chrome finish, with black grips sleeves. Other grip sleeve colors are also available for replacement or customizing.
