Hand and foot control questions?
This may sound like a dumb question but before I get my new fatboy I'd like to know. I am planning on getting new hand grips, floorboard inserts, brake pedal pad, shifter pegs, and passenger pegs the day of purchase. Can these items be easily installed by myself or should I have the dealer install them? This will be my first harley and I want to make sure everything goes on right. Are there any special tools needed. I'd like to do it all myself to save on labor cost if at all possible. Thanks

I second that...It makes me appreciate all the things that go on.
and it is all very easy, even for people that are not mechanically inclined
Now I enjoy making things on my own. During Hurricane Wilma, I was without power for a few days and made a few timer covers out of diamond plating for my buddies using tin snips and a file. That killed a few hours...

I was a little nervous on my first change, but if you just dive in and take it apart, you will easily see how it goes back together. No prob, bob. You will know when it's too much for you to do yourself. But those additions you mentioned are easy enuff.
