Got some more progress today. Pulled the wires through the bars. Started to solder on extra wire when Gene came over. He showed me a better method then we took off for lunch. After I got back, I finished up the wiring. And also sanded down the inner fairing and put a couple coats of paint to it.

Looks like fun. Should be ready for ES 2011?

I took them apart, cleaned them, and lubed em'. Put on the new front brake line, new fluid and pads, and bled them. Also put in polyurthn bushings for the risers. Got the inner fairing mounted back up so that I could adjust the bars where I want them. Got the guages put back in, so now the only thing left is putting all them wires back where the belong, and installing new cables. I can see why changeing bars on a bagger ain't an easy job, I'm really looking forward to getting it done. Just don't want to miss something and have to do it again.

I order new clutch and throttle cables over a week ago. The shop finally called like 3 minutes ago to let me know that they finally came in. Looks like I better put some pants on, and go pick em' up.

Got the cables on last night, and was ready to fire it up. But after connecting the battery the switches weren't working, and the lights didn't work either.
I started tracing wires this morning and found a few wire harness connectors weren't plugged in all the way. At least it was something simple. So I took her out for a short ride this morning. The bike feels so much bigger with these bars on.

Looks good Doug. I like the black handlebars. The seat needs some gorilla tape though.

I can see my elbows pretty good.
Muck better, I sit back and more upright now. My first seat did the same thing after a few years.
