[QUOTE="Scab, post: 230006, member: 1708"] I installed the 650 handguards. No problems. I have an '05. There will be some modification though. The 650 handguards were designed for a clutch cable and therefore have a tab extension that has to be ground off on the left. (disk sander made short and clean work of it.) And of course, they both require adjusting for the FJR bar end size. (but this is also true for the 1000 grips) (dremel rules) edit: And when you install, visually guage from the bottom of the guards and not the top. The right one will not 'sit' down against the lever housing. The bolt that comes with the guard will look funny and appear not to have enough threads, but install as-is and the guard will be even with the left. [/QUOTE]
