I use these too. They do need a tweak here and there to fit, and a few bushings for  brake line clearance at the inboard mounting locations. Might have been due to my handlebar upgrade though. In any event they are very well made, and stout. Crash tested mine several times and still good as new. Broke the glass in a mirror (after failing to tuck it away when off-road) and HDB hooked me up with spare glass. Good as new !!
I would advise against their LED signals though. They are very dim. I replaced mine with a pair of these;

Huge improvement in visibility.

Hello Ziabeam,

What are you running for rear turn signals?
I also have HDB could you send me a photo how it looks with these turnsignals installed?

Thanks,
ken

These rear turn signals (with clear lens and amber LED's);

With the running light option to enhance visibility to cagers (plug and play Yamaha WRR/X is available);
http://shop.12oclocklabs.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=38&product_id=70

Prior to the front LED upgrade was using front running light adapters too, removed that feature for the new mega bright LED turn signals, since the signals are so close to the Mondo-Moto driving lights which provide ample warning to cagers  eeek  Will get pictures very shortly !
Thanks for the inquiry Very happy

BTW... Just noticed that there are MANY word associated links (shown as highlighted words) in posts that have NOTHING to do with the actual content of a post. Very confusing is an understatement. Fortunately the misleading links seem to vanish once you "log-in" to the forum.

Here ya go; (had to order a virgin set of plastic from HDB since I originally had their multi-LED set up. Only needs a 3/8" hole to fit the LED's shown).

I applied narrow Teflon based mil-spec electrical tape wrap (the pink stuff) to stiffen the wire leads, and a little strip of Gorilla tape over the final wraps to keep it all trail ready ;

And here's a pic of the spacers (the naked aluminum 1/4" thick washers at the inboard ends of the black anodized HDB protectors). These were needed to allow clearance for the brake reservoir banjo;

Hey Zia,
What are you using to mount those accessory lights? I have some from ADV MOnster that have been hanging around for a couple of years that I need to finally put on.

I used some 5/16" thick aluminum angle (might be 3/8"), with the light bolted under the top horizontal leg, and milled a shallow horizontal slot on the back of the vertical leg, the same width as the HDB guard, so that leg would have top and bottom ant-rotation lips to "hug" the HDB handguard. That way only one small bolt is needed to keep each aluminum angle mount attached to the HDB guards, and the light mounted this way can be adjusted left/right/up/down.

I'm looking at doing something similar. What Pro Taper bar bend is that? Do you have risers as well? Thanks.
