    After hunting for the right bolts because no hardware was sent with the bars, internally wiring and sodering extensions in all the wires, I finally got them on! I think they look awesome! I know everybody has seen this install before, I did it with the help of The Redhorse Barons Radius instructions. Just thought I'd share. Theres always a feeling of accomplishment when you say, "hey look, I did that, all by myself, and it actually looks good and works!"

    Looks awesome. I would def love some bars like that! Black of course for me but...

    Did you have stock bars before? Hows the pullback feel when you ride now compared to before? More upright or more leaned forward? Can you see your speedo when riding?


    Can you dig it? ...CAN You Dig it? ... CAAAAN YOOUU DIIIIG IIIIIITT!?!?!?!??!?!

    They look sweet.

    Can I see a closeup of the left grip and controls and maybe a picture from underneath? Where was the hole for the wiring on the left in the right place? Or did you have to drill it? Or did nyou mount the mirror on top of the wiring? ?

    Looks awesome, what sort of wire covering did you use. Looks much better than mine turned out. I've gotta redo that step one day.

    Wonderful job there, looks great.

    I will be putting my bars on next week, can you tell me what size hardware you needed for the job since I didn't receive anything either.

    Thanks.

    Yes I had the stock bars before. Originally, I would say the feel is about the same. About the same rise and pullback. But, about a month before I put these on I raised the stock bars up a bit, so its taking a bit of getting used to. I can see the bottom half of the speedo, but its not a big deal, if I lean forward or back I can see how fast Im going. Plus, you can judge your speed by the tach as well.

    The hole was in the right place, I just didnt push the wires up through all the way. Theres an indentation in the bar so you can fit the wires under the clutch/mirror mount. No drilling required.

    I used the outer shell of the water hose that connects to a toilet. Got the idea from Redhorse's instructions.

    7/16 - 14 SAE thread. I got 3 inch long bolts. There is a gap because of the smaller size bolt, and I need to find or make some spacers, but there are plenty of other people rollin without so I figure Im ok for a while. Rifleman made some, if he sees this post, Im hoping he'll offer to make more or give the specs to make 'em.
