Default Nacelle Installed!

Got my Nacelle installed today...it was well worth the trouble

Everything went fairly well, the only problem is the riser cover. Unfortunately, it doesn't sit flush on my Nacelle...the thickness of my bars won't allow it to sit right...so I'll have to grind some metal off of the arch on each side to allow for about a 16th of an inch.

Not sure if anybody else had this problem...if you did and found another solution, I'm all ears!

A few photos...the riser cover is on in these photos, but it's not bolted down...just resting in place until I fix the gap.
