Are those the 577's pictured? If so, they appear to be below the top of fairing. How do you like em! Are they comfy? I was looking for more reach over stock and also eliminate that annoying pain in the upper back on long hauls.

Finished the Install

Finished installing my WO577 minnies last night. All went pretty good. I did get hung up on the clutch adjustment. My interpretation was in reverse of the manual. I found a sweet video on another forum that showed step by step on clutch adjustments and I had it fixed in about 15 minutes. Google - clutch adjustment video. The total changeout took me about 20 hours. Reading the manual and forum info included in that time. Pretty simple just time consuming for me. I watched some awesome weather go by. Couldn't wait for winter with all the parts sitting in my garage.

My part selection came from recommendations from this site. Thanks everyone! The internet rocks!

All cables and brake lines were ordered through Magnum Shielding (Chromite). Arrived in just a few days. I ordered the +8 on all. This was the recommended length from Wild One for this bar.

The 8" switch wiring extentions came from Namz.
New Avon Performance Grips (J&P Cycles)
Under bar mirror mount.

All fit perfectly. Love the bars on my Ultra. I am 5'7" and they through me right back into the backrest.
