I did not need to grind them at all. If you do internally wire them, I would highly recommend cutting the wires vs. removing them from the molex connectors.

I replaced the standard 1200 Custom bars with the 1200 Low bars.
I picked these because I needed to lean back a bit more to stop my arthritic back from aching. Works great.

Internally wiring this is an absolute pain!!!...but worth it.
Any Pics? I'd like to see them on your iron, it would give me a better idea how they would look on my Nightster.
