The holes are already there, so no drilling required, plus they are slotted a bit so you actually have some adjustability if you want it (I didn't as Iput them all the way down). I used short black hex type socket head cap screws with stainless nylon lock nuts. In this pic you can see the raw brackets when I put them on for a test run to see how it would look/work.


I took them off and ran down the street to an indy guy's shop that I know and used his bench grinder to round and smooth the edges (No shop equipment atmy daughter's house in town where I keep the bike). Then all it needed was some sanding and painting (I was already painting some other stuff). When I put them back on, I decided to go inside the tank tabs this time.The finished product ispretty much invisible, and feels very solid.Total cost wasless than $5 (since I had the paint already), it took very little time, and the grinder was the only thing Ineeded that wasn't in my truck tool box.




Finished product from a distance:

If you're hell bent on needlessly throwing money away for one that costs more to do the exact same thing, then you can just donate it to me!
