Well, the wife got me an early Valentine's Day gift today. Picked up a set of HD Diamond Black grips. Gonna put them on tomorrow. Anything crazy to watch out for?

 

Nope! Just the HUGE amount of awesomness that comes with em!

 

Very nice! Those are some nice grips. Should look great on your Bones! What a wife.

 

Thanks. When I ordered the stuff for forward controls, I did the diamond black pegs, shifter peg, brake pedal pad and the black billet brake lever and shifter.....wish that stuff would get here

 

I found the throttle to be a bit tricky getting the cable/clips to go back in. Patience.

 

Yeah. Don't lose those little tiny brass cable ends. They hit the ground and disappear. Try to avoid putting any bends in the cable itself where it hooks to the grip. If you do; the cable will soon fray and you'll have to replace it.

 

There is a unwritten rule...when you get bling you need to post pics

 

oh and if you don't have one handy, get yourself a service manual...

Put some Skull grips on mine today. The bike was in for some warranty work (new ignition switch) so I had them install the grips while there for free. Look and feel great.

 

I hear ya, I have one for the 09 Road King I traded in, I still need one for the softail family....
