It was not a peticularly hard job. I have had the dash apart a number of times with the J&M speakers, Rocky's Risers and LED turn signals. They say a Wing Mechanic takes about 3 hours, and it took me about 4 1/2 while I took numerous breaks, snacks, etc....I found that the Rocky's Risers did fine until I installed the Mustang seat. After being pushed back a few inches, they were not enough. I will say you can get some odd angles on these bars. I love the B, but I have spent a ton of cash trying to get it to fit my 6'1" frame. I think Honda makes their bikes for 5'7" 160 lb riders.

I now have to go get some DOT 4 brake fluid and will be ready to go after bleeding the brakes and clutch.

Let us know how they do for ya, adn how the adjustment process goes for finding the sweetspot.

Once you find where you want them, I believe you will love them. For me, I think the magic was in being able to change the grip angle as much as bringing them rearward.
