I am about a C- mechanic, but I have been able to do most of the mods on my drz 400.
I have several fails to my credit on the DCT.
Today I tried to install the SW motech kobra handguards. I put handguards on the drz, so I know the basics. But the guards did not reach a convenient spot on the handlebars. I think it is because of the risers, but I am not sure. The guard also was touching the front brake.
I also took off the front plastics to see if there was a spot on the harness for the turn signal / running light and couldn't find one.
Then I managed to drop one of those cool Honda tabs with the slot on it and lose it somewhere. Probably it is on the skid plate. The hardware store had some similar ones that worked, but the hardware store tabs did not have the slot.
I guess I have reached my level of incompetence and need to pay someone to do it.
Or try again tomorrow. Any suggestions?
