[QUOTE="Geezer, post: 49242, member: 436"] Basically there are 2 kinds of farkles. 1) The parts are made specifically for the application. Your make and model of bike. The supplier advertises that it will fit and you have a right to expect them to stand behing their product. 2) Home grown farkles where we adapt things made for one purpose and make them work on our bike either as they come or with modification. I think of this type of farkling as hot rodding. When you are hot rodding you are usually making a trade off. Maybe the handguards wuill keep your hands warm but they create some friction or other clearance problems. Your choice how to deal with it. Hot rodding is not for everyone. You need to be very careful not to create a dangerous situation like maybe if the throttle does not return in an emergency situation. [/QUOTE]
