Thanks! This post saved me from all kinds of blasphemy. Off to get the blue loctite.

Well, it doesn't look as good on a light-colored bike (yellow), but I would have done a much worse job with universals and no guide, so thanks for this thread.

I have this same issue on my 5th Gen. Will Heli's help with this angle issue? Would a shop be able to drill the holes for a "reasonable" cost?

Over on our Bay Area ride http://www.vfrdiscussion.com/forum/index.php/topic/71386-may-26th-bay-area-roll-call-ride-xxx/, we came upon a couple, he was on a V-Strom and I forget what she had and they were 10-15 UNDER and slowing up an Oldsmobile up the road to Mt. Hamilton. They wouldn't take a turnout and only 3 riders passed them and the Olds did they wave the rest by. I felt sorry for the lady because she was locked-elbow, pointed straight ahead on a seriously technical road going from 0 - 4200ft. They made it though. We saw them at the observatory. If you have to drive slow to be safe, pull over, wave us by, but do something to acknowledge your current lack of skill or ridiculously leisure pace.

Bah! Drilling things is great fun. Although I did scuff up the plastic on the grips install.

Change that connection, charge up the battery and hopefully you'll be fine for the ride. Tightwad also can do expedited USPS is you request it. I got my VFRNess in less than a week, I think.

Wow. Great work. The '85 does make me yearn for my '86 VF500F.

Another 5th Gen install, but on the left. Only needed one bolt and a 90 degree brace.

OK. Wondering what new gadget I was missing out on.
