Good day everyone,
As some others on here have mentioned, the highway bars are less than stellar! With the flex on both sides, one is much farther forward than the other. I'm just not sure which side is in the correct position. The left side is in the cut out of the rad shroud where as the right side is and 1.5" behind the shroud. If someone could fire me off a picture of both sides so I can see the correct position, that would be great.
 
Interesting, my guards appear to me to be exactly the opposite from yours. On both my '06 classic and the '08 Touring the right side guards look to be forward of the radiator shrouds about an inch or so at the bottom of the radiator. One the left side on both of my bikes the guards appear to be approximately an inch away from the lower radiator shroud. Weird, eh? Problem is I have had two whiskeys and that might effect my perspective. More importantly no one will notice if there is a difference and if the bike falls over the guards will do their job. :)
