America w/ Dresser Bars???

So my new to me bike came with dresser bars, still in the box. The instructions state that you have to jack the bike up before doing the install.
No jack, so no install, yet.

Any advice?

Any pics? I'm not sure I want to go this route anyway. TIA!

I put mine on with the bike on the sidestand. I pulled the lower bolt and put the bars on loosely so they could pivot into the top position and then attached them one at a time to the top frame bracket. Then I torqued the bolts back to spec and badda bing Bob's your uncle.

They look great with the black pipes. I'm afraid it would look more like a chrome pretzel on my stock 07. Thanks for the pic. Thanks a good lookin' ride!

Dresser bars... you will be thankful they are there if you happen to come off! They save a heLL of a lot of damage.
