I am also curious about the install time. Not including waiting on shipping.

You can install the bars in a night, pretty much up to what i have pictured. I still need to connect wiring and change out all the cable and brake line. My wiring is internal. The wiring connectors will not fit through the Hardtail Chopper bars, so the connectors need to be snipped off. There is a machined piece in the bottom of the bars (that connect to the top triple tree). The inside diameter of the hole in this machined piece is too small to fit the connecter through. You'll need to solder. Once I get all the parts I can probably finish it up in half a Saturday. My cables come next Wed. Stay tuned.
