Yeah, Brian PM'd me about the screws...thought I could live with it 'till I got a tire change or something....but noooooooooooooo...had the bags off, on the jack, and I was dirty anyway, so changed them out the other night.  Everytime I looked at them, all I could see was that damn screw!! ;D ;D  Diva caught me changing them out, and had a big laugh at my OCDAR...

Really nice job on the bars.  [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]  But I have to agree with others, that's way out of my league to do.  I'd have to farm that one out and pay dearly for it.  But great job and pics.

Terry, I'm a little blotto right now and even bleary eyed that looks sweet.  Your back and that area in between your shoulders will LOVE those bars; and they look better too.  You're right, it is a bitch of a job though.  Mine happened a long time ago now but I'm pretty sure I remember starting right after lunch one Saturday or Sunday and didn't get done unil like 9:00 or 10:00 that night.  It was a good all day job.  So doing it a bit of a time during evenings you did ok.  And you got your shock switch the way you want it too  [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif] .


Now I know I'll never put on the Legends shocks cause I won't want the wires exposed while Terry's are hidden and I KNOW I won't screw with running them inside  ;D .

Terry;
In all honesty changing out the cams and such is a lot less tedious than the bar swap...... You can do it [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]

With the money you will save by doing it yourself. How's that for friends???? ;D

Oh I wish I lived in Birmingham. I would ask you to come ride my bike for me this winter when I couldn't just to keep oil on the top of the engine....

/me thinks that would expedite this upgrade. [smiley=huepfenlol2.gif]

The Legend Switch...as you know from my earlier posts on the shocks, replaces the clutch clamp, but is about 1/2" wider...not a problem on the stock bars.


ooooooooh, I understand exactly what you're describing.  Never considered from all the prior descriptions that the clamp housing itself would be wider.  Always just thought about the switches coming through it without considering how big "it" is.  Fatter handlebars would certainly be an issue there.  Already having those bars I'd have to contend with the same thing.  Bummer....

Terry,
Great job on the bars!  [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif] I'm amazed by the projects you tackle on your own.  If I'd had my bike in that many pieces, it would have never gone back together!!  [smiley=nervous.gif]
