Thanx again.

Just the light playing tricks.

Although, I swear to god the side covers did not get enough candy red at the factory. You don't see it in the photo, but in reality they do not match perfectly to my eye. If I ever do extended bags, the side covers are gonna get repainted at the same time.

Stock bars (for now)

Rotated as far forward as they can go without hitting the fairing. 1/8" gap to leave just enough for the normal amount of play in the mounts without them touching the painted inner fairing.

Looks great to me, I would just ditch the football, but that's a preference thing. It looks awesome regardless.
