How mechanical are ya. It shouldn't be too bad. Just gotta take off all the stuff that are currently on the stock clip ons and transferring it over. Biggest pain in the a$$ will probably be the grips, which shouldn't be too bad anyways. All depends on the grips.
Why are you swapping out the clip on's?

hmmmmmmm
That might get intersting. Post up a thread on your progress. Curious to see how it turns out.
The rearsets should be easy too. Have you found a company that makes them for your bike?

Damn that a cheap price for Woodcraft. They got quality stuff too.
The only thing you might need is a brake pressure switch. I'm guessing the rearsets are gonna be adjustable?

Ah ok. So it's not a full set. You still have to use some stock parts. Gonna get them powdercoated black?

That would be a pretty big contract, but it might work out. You gonna get the front fairing, or keep it streetfighter style?
