[QUOTE="phroenips, post: 735472, member: 19942"] Given the recent group buy (of which I participated), I thought I'd give my recount of installing a set of HeliBars and risers on a Gen2 (2007, specifically). HeliBars gives you very good and comprehensive instructions, including color photos. The text for the triple clamp instructions is on [URL="https://www.helibars.com/sites/default/files/install_instructions/HRT076-2%20Install%20Instructions.pdf"]their website (pdf)[/URL], but they seem to have forgotten to include the photos here. They come with complete instructions with the product. It's pretty straight forward, although I had trouble with step 1 (apply enough weight to the rear so that the front end is in the air), and step 11 (remove the ignition switch from the stock triple tree). For step 1, I reached way down to find my old Boy Scout knot tying skills and came up with this: [IMG]https://penetrode.net/scott/webpics/FJR/FJR_Raisethefrontend1.JPG[/IMG] As for removing the ignition switch, they make it sound and look so easy in their instructions! I eventually got it, but it took a little work. We have two FJRs which we installed them on. Took maybe around 3 hours for the first one, but we got the second one done in 1 - 1.5 hours. [/QUOTE]
