Default Forwards installed last night, ride today

So I took a gamble based off the review on here awhile back and purchased some forward controls off ebay. They came in yesterday and naturally being the impatient person that i am i cleared the schedule and put them on. Seeing as how they dont require the removal of the primary I had them on in about an hour maybe a little less. Install was simple only a few bolts and then adjusting them to were i wanted them was the longest due to the fact it's kind of trial and error. After a quick outing last night, I was able to get a nice ride in today for a few hours. Being that I'm 6'2" the forwards were basically a necessity and they are much more comfortable. Seem very well built and no complaints thus far. Curious how the anodizing/powdercoating will hold up. Here's some pics from today and the install last night

Never seen forwards like that.

They're COOL.

Much simpler than the HD ones.

yea that's what sold me. Quick to switch them out. My only gripe is the peg mount is opposite so aftermarket pegs are off the table but they honestly look pretty good.

I was wondering how you installed them so fast! LOL. After seeing the set up I figured it out.
Pretty cool!
I did the HD ones but just cut the shaft so we didn't have to pull the primary. That took almost 1 hour itself....
