Take off riser clamp and bars. Lay a blanket over tank and rest bars there. Unbolt the risers and take out the old busing. Put in new bushings and put it all back together.

That pretty well sums it up! Not a bad job and worth the effort! Make sure the master cylinder doesnt leak...that stuff is bad for paint!
