Default RE: New risers, bars, grips......

Thanks for the compliments..........

Bars are the HDNarrow Beach Bars. I like the looks and feel of them, and I get less pull between my shoulder blades over the stock ones.

I couldn't believe the dealer quoted me 10 hrs for bars and risers, 12 hrs if they needed to replace the lines. At ~$70/hr, I said HELL NO and it took me only about 8 hrs over the course of a week to do it.

I do most of my own maintenance, but haven't gotten into any wiring. And even though some of the directions and such from the new parts and shop manual didn't quite jibe with each other all the time, it wasn't as nearly as hard as Ithought it would be.
