I am installing these today on my Interceptor (black).

I have them in black. I like them but the range goes from slightly smaller than stock to way bigger.

Done!  They LOOK SO much better and FEEL better too!
As usual, the part the installation video glosses over was the hardest part ... getting those two %$^#@! little screws back in to hold the clutch lever switch in.  They are tiny, easy to drop and on the underside of the lever where you can't see what you are doing.  I strongly suggest spreading a white sheet under your bike because you ARE going to drop the damned things at least three times and take it from me, they are a PIT to find on a concrete floor! 
But it was all worth it, and I got to practice my choice swear words.

Today I am installing this cruise control.

The automatic brake release feature on the cruise control won't work with the adjustable levers, so I just removed it with my trusty Dremel tool.
This is the third cruise control I have tried ...
tried the Atlas and the Vista Universal, both pieces of S**TNeither would hold where you set it.
This one actually WORKS.

Hi, how many miles have you got on that set up? I'm thinking of doing something for a long trip I have planned.

None yet ... just got them installed yesterday and today and it is too cold here to go for a ride.
