Wow, those are beautiful, and thank you for detailing the installation. You certainly take care not to let anything get damaged in the process!
The instructions alone are pretty enough to warrant framing and display on your garage wall. Very interesting to consider the relationship to the foot pedals in the process to keep your bodily geometry comfortable.

If it were me... I have a feeling my OCD would make me do this. My CB had just a slight amount of key-rash on the top brackets for the handlebars. I hit them with 0000 steel wool in the direction of the original "grain" of the brushed look, reshot them with gloss clear, and they look factory-perfect again. Looks like the finish on the risers is sort of a natural shot-peened aluminum. I wonder if it could be brushed to match the original finish of the handlebar clamps?

You know what? I actually would like a pickle.
