You have to shorten the brake pedal(not everyone does though from what I've read.)
And you can either build shift linkage, but I just reversed mine. It shifts backwards now. (1 up - 4 down)
I cut it short and drilled a hole through it.
The I tapped it, put a bolt through with a nut on it.
Slide the bolt through a piece of fuel line and there you go.
Add a set of lower bars and it will totally change the feel of the bike. Theses are straight drag bars.
Now it has superbike bars on it, I like them much better.
The bike was way uncomfortable for me with the stock peg location...Now my feet fall right in the correct position.
Does that help? Let me know if you want pictures of anything specific.

oh yeah...that's pretty sweet.what size shoe do you wear...How much did cut off your brake pedal, and your shifter. I might just do this today....i want clubman bars...something that would give me that crotch rocket feel....so what do you suggest.
Size 13. My brake pedal is actually too far away for my taste, but it works ok.
I'm not sure how much I cut off it. I did the pegs first, then sat on the bike and decided how much to take off the controls.
The shifter I cut about 1-1.5" shorter.
I haven't tried clubmans...I know the drag bars felt pretty low. they where just uncomfortable because the ones I got had no curve, they where just a straight pipe. Most of the ones you buy have a bit of a curve for normal human wrists. :laugh:
Clubmans where what I was going to get, but I figured I would start less extreme...and cheaper. They also require a bit more re-arranging or replacement of throttle/clutch cables and stuff like that.

Top two are Eddie Lawson if you know who that is.
Another one I had saved, not sure the riders name.
