Anyone installed the Hepco side carriers?

Translated instructions not too helpful. If anyone has installed this, I'd appreciate a little info.

I have these...

I got them from MotoMachines.com and one of the guys over there is a forum member (Motomachines is his handle). See if he can't hook you up with a better set of directions and photos.

Those are the exact parts I have. You already installed them? Was it pretty straightforward? I might et started on it after work if I get home at a reasonable time. Directions aren't very clear how to mount the turn signals or what bolts go where.

I just muddled through. The signals were the trickiest part, but it all made sense when I was done. I'll go out and take a few photos that might help. A little :angel:

There are some pics of a CB1100 on the MotoMachines site that MIGHT help some. Maybe not much. Bob's will most likely help more.

Here you go. Let me know of any easy questions. And don't judge me because my chain is rusty. We have had a bit of rain

Bob, Great pics! Shows a whole lot more that the MotoMachines pics.

About that chain though.....

Very nice! So muffler doesn't need to come off or anything? These are at least as helpful as the whole instructions list haha

No, muffler stays put.

Man those were a total pain! Then I get to the literally last step, installing the 2nd bag latch bracket. Realize I needed the 16mm length bolts for that, but used them on the turn signals! Those wanted the 12mm length bolts but the 16mm went in fine. Guess I get to go find a pair of those bolts tomorrow so I can finish the install.
