Last friday I installed my new T-bars. I went with the Milwaukee Twins 6" rise, 6" pullback and 33.5" wide handlebars. The installation was a cake walk except the bars didn't come with mounting bolts. Big thanks to Greg for telling me the correct bolt size to go with! Went to the local true value and purchased the bolts, lock washers, and found some really nice 1.25 in diameter 1/16 thick rubber washers to use as a buffer between the bar and the tree. The big issue I ran into though was for some reason the magna's controls don't use dimples like most of the newer bikes so I did have to fabricate something up to keep the throttle switch housing from rotating. I ran back to the hardware store and found a hard nylon flange type bearing and trimmed the flange to fit into the dimple on the bars and then trimmed the shaft part to the right length and slid it over the the factory nub. It works well but I think I am going to find some round aluminum stock and shape it to fit into the length of the dimple then drill the aluminum stock so the factory nub will fit into it. Overall these bars are really really comfortable! Only down fall is that I can no longer see my neutral, highbeam, and turn signal indicators. Here are some pics.

Looks sweeeeet man! :D You kinda got me in the mood to change my bars out for different ones. 8) What was the total cost for everything if you don't mind "us :cool:" asking?
It wasn't bad. The bars were 140 or so shipped, 9 bucks for stainless hardware and the spacers, 60.00 for the grips. Total would be just over 200.00 and those iso grips are well worth it. They are comfy.
Very, very nice work.
