Thanks very much, it looks like the 518 are more what I want. They seem to have a little less of the "wheelbarrow" angles and keep the wrists less bent. Were you able to use all the stock cables?

How do you like the Cee Bailey Windshield that is also what Im ordering.

I used all the stock wiring and stock clutch cable and stock front brake line. All I did was rotate the front brake fitting at the master cylinder a bit.

The shield in the photo is a 16" Euro style, it is a good shield. I liked it but I am currently using a CB 15" Cee Glide shield. I think the Cee Glide provides even better protection than the Euro I had on before.
