So I finally finished installing Murph's front tip over bars (huge PITA).
I followed all the instructions, did everything right, and the right tip over bar is closer to the fairing than the left one. I measured the distance from the fairing to the outside of the bar today. About 6 inches on the right, and about 6.5 inches on the left. That extra half inch makes all the difference in the ease of removal of the bars when the fairing is on.
As it is now, I can't even take off or put on the bottom screw that holds the bar on the right side without partially removing the fairing to give me some room. The left side is fine.
How is this possible? It's obviously not right... Like I said, I followed the instructions, even rechecked the orientation of the mounts, and it was all correct. The bar itself isn't skewed, and fits well. It's just too damn close to the fairing. Spacers too short? I dunno.
