That's nice to know,
that's off and on with the stock bars, it might be more of a pain and not have the clearance with fat meat hooks

Default I did it!!!

I followed the Volunteer Audio on how to remove the outer fairing which also showed how to remove the tank as well! That's literally half the battle!!!! After that, 2 bolts and screw on each fork and then 3 screws on each side from inside the fairing. There are also 2 screws under the key lock to lock the bars
That's it! No removing wires or snipping this and replacing that. The only connections are the main headlight which you do at the neck, fuel pump right under tank, fuel line and the overflow at front and back of tank.
I got this home at 11:30 and was done @ 3:30 with breaks and a bowl cereal! 🤣
Even the box says 1 wrench out of 4 for hardness of job.
Don't be afraid, get at it!

Agree on changing the bars. I put on Tall Boys, OEM caused pain in my shoulders.
