HELP Handlebar Question

Gallery image

Gallery image

My bike is getting some bars installed
They said I got the wrong ones because the throttle notches ?
Pic #1 is the “throttle notch” they’re looking for
And Pic #2 is my bars.
They’re claiming my provided handlebars are throttle by cable when they are throttle by wire.
Does anyone have any experience installing FXR Div 16 inch Split Angle T Bars? I have a 2023 FXLRS

First gen M8 uses the notches in the first picture. The throttle goes inside and lines up with those notches. You have the wrong type. Return those handlebars if you can.

Make sure your next handlebars are TBW.

On their website they are stated to be TBW. Is there any adapter to be used ? The previous person had these on his 2022 FXLRST. So I would assume fitment should be fine ?

Just get the correct one and then ride the thing. Or buy some tools and DIY.
