I took it to a bike shop and they loosened the bar ends for me (I didn't have a wrench big enough), and used an air gun to take the grip off. Installation was a snap after that. I found that the bars do nothing to help my wrists (I guess that's riding style), but they DO make me sit in the Corbion seat better, as well as reduce strain on my back. They also make the mirrors a little less useful, as your hands are higher in the field of view. I put 700 miles on them this past weekend, and want to use them a little longer before I decide to go back to the old bars. -K ---------------------------------------------------- From: "Welch, Garrett R" Yup, that's what a friend of mine, Mike Mortland, said when he put Heli's on his '94 GTS. He could not feel the difference and He thought they did not help. I still have stock bars on my GTS so we both took a cruise a round the area and switched every 5 miles or so. You don't feel to much difference when you try the bars but what a difference when you go back to stock bars. Mike said that he could not go back to stock bars. I have not bought the bars yet and I do not believe I will. I prefer to have more sport in my sport-touring.
