Post up some pictures for reference, if you don't mind, please.
I just installed the grab handle kit on my bike this evening. My guess is that it will take about 30-45 minutes to do the initial install. Once you've done that, I think it should take you about 15 minutes to remove/re-install them.
The kit contains:
Two handles
Two small rubber panels
Two large rubber panels
Four Bolts and Four Washers
You will only use the larger panels. The small ones are to fit the handles to some other bike. Not sure which bike.
You will need to remove the existing rubber panels from each side of the bike. There are two bolts on each side which retain the panels. To remove the panels, remove the bolts, then pull down on the rear edge of each panel, while simultaneously pulling them rearward. Here's a shot of the left panel you will remove:
In these photos, you can see I've removed the seat and the existing panel from the right side:
Here are images of the how the handle and panel are assembled for the left side of the bike:
Insert the three fingers on the panel through the holes in the handle. I sprayed them with silicone to help seat them easier. They are a very tight fit.
Here are pics of the right side grab handle after it has been assembled:
Both handles are ready for installation:
Install each handle on the bike by inserting the wide end up and above the trailing edge of the saddle side panel (faring) and then raising the narrow end upwards to greet the tail lamp. Secure with the included bolts and washers (use thread lock), and you're done.
