Dealer. My dealer just installed my lowers during my last service. Charged me $17.50 for the install. Anything goes wrong - I go back on him !!!!

If you want to do it yourself.....Go to an auto parts store and ask for "3M Very High Bond Tape.

It is is gray on the short roll I bought is separated with a red plastic that is imprinted with the letters VHB.

Clean all parts and the bodywork with dawn and then with alcohol to remove grease, wax and dirt.

Ride Safe!

Sorry - I checked my invoice: was 0.25 hours $27.50. Wierd stuff !!!

Still better than me frickin' around for 2 hours trying to get them positioned right, and hoping they wouldn't blow away .....

I figured the dealer likely had done a bunch of installs - and could do it a lot easier than me. And would 'back up' their work if there was a problem. If Darren had them installed before/when he bought his Vision - then Victory should look after the problem.

I reinstalled my deflectors then drilled and countersunk hole in each mount leg, painted machine screw heads black so it looks stock. Be careful the gas tank is right behind mount points , you will need to shorten screws to avoid interference. took about 1 hour total for job

Oh to be 20 years younger .... I used to do ALL that stuff. Now I pay someone - and spend my 'fixing' time - riding .... (or - well, you have seen my Co-Pilot )

Life is TOO short
