Does anyone have any step by step instructions on how to take of the old bars and install some new 0 degree bars? I think I can do it but pictures or explanation would help. Thank you.

Don't forget the start/stop switch. There's a little nipple that locates in a hole on the stock bars that you'll need to grind off when you change to aftermarket bars. It's pretty easy to remove, and you don't need it anyway. Just make sure you grind it flush so the switch clamps back down properly. I'd also modify the grips part: Remove POS stock grips, install shiny new ODIs :biggrin:

Its pretty much self explainatory. Just look at what holds stuff ona dn remove it. The only thing you really gotta do is file off the nipple ont he start/stop switch.
Other then that its all just common sense install.

Yea I got some Rogue grips. I just saw that I have to grind down the nipple, what if I just left it? It seems to fit fine? Will it not work? Thanks

What bars do you have? Most aftermarket bars don't have the locator hole, so you have to grind it off.
Or you can drill a new hole in the new bars like I do.

I forgot about the start/stop switch. Then nipple thingie was gound down on mine but it stays in place when I tighten it down. Keeps you from drilling a hole in the handlebars.
