I know you have to move alot of things around to make them work somtimes..

alot of times, you have to move things around a little, but generally they shoudl go on pretty easy. When you buy them , they give you alot of hardware, not all of that goes on, just what you need. when i put mine on, i had alot left over. there are different ways of mounting the handguard to the post too, its mostly personal prefeence, and space issuing, but with mine, i just lowered my clutch/brake lever. every quad is different, thats why there universal. what kind of problems are you having?

Allright i got them last night. But i had to move allmost everything on my handle bars around. I still dont think i got it right because my clutch hits my starter buttom and were the headlight switches are. But i guess its good enough thatnks for the help.

Try to get some pics of your guards. Top view usually shows the best way to put them. Here's a couple pics of mine, if you want different views I can get them for you.

haha I know look how far the lever is from the grip!? I have mine mounte facing the other way too, the actual bar mount is going the other direction. Makes your guards stick out a little more away from the bars so you ahve more room for levers and such.

I only use one finger to pull my clutch in so I really don't need all of the lever. To bad someone don't make a custom lever that is like 3 inches long so it don't take up so much room.
