It's been way too cold and snowy for me to do any of that. I am going to order up a set of shackles for the rear and crank the t-bars up front for the extra 1" i need.

They were really comfortable, my back didn't hurt like it usually does with the stock seats. Thanks again!

Yeah they are super super bright! About 2x as bright as the stock headlight high beams.

Sounds like you have a full day ahead of you, looking forward to the IFS build.
