It's a good look. I have the edge cut mirrors on my NT. The grips and levers were a no-go for me though, as I like to ride gloveless around town, and they look like they'd be uncomfortable (if not downright painful). Just a consideration, in case you do the same.

Your wife gets points for her thoughtfulness. GL making a decision.

I do wear gloves. Only time I don't is if it's just a quick little trip to the store and I don't feel like throwing them on.

Already had my services done, but I don't think that would be a problem with the cables anyway.

Thanks for the replies. I think I'll go ahead and start throwing the easy stuff on for now and see what I think when that's done.

The edge cut collection is p[practically made for your bike. Contrast cut black and aluminum. You could not get any closer to something that will match.

I haven't installed it yet, so not sure what it looks like actually on the bike. We both like the look of the collection by itself, but are wondering if it's too much shiny stuff for my denim black lo. I'm going to make my own decision, but i'm just throwing the question out there to you fine folks. What do you think? Like i said, i love the look of it, just not sure if i like the look on my bike yet. I don't want to install anything on it yet, because if i do, and i don't like it, they may not take it back!!! Please comment. No pics, obviously, because it's not installed. Thanks fellas....

i agree with the crowd. Use the edge cut set. Imo...the only down side i see is that many, many more folks will want the same thing as soon as they see them. They also look good on the vivid black.

watch out when changing the throttle grip... if you dont do the piece of cardboard thing on the brake lever you WILL break the switch and its 50 bucks! i learned this the hard way.
