Step 6: Mounting the Controller, grip, throttle and brake levers.

I found some Aluminium Channel from my junk box and fitted large washers to my clamps, the channel fitted perfectly in between the clamp bolts and the washers pinned it perfectly, the rise in the center of the channel left perfect room, to run the brake and throttle wires nicely out of sight behind the controller, i have to cover the wiring loom with something yet.

There is not really any need for the controls and wiring paths step, 
so I took some photos of the throttle and brake levers to just give some visual info's.

Handy Hint:
If you have an air compressor, To remove original handgrips, use the Air Duster to inject air between the handlebar and grip, the air releases the grip from the handlebar using an air cushion effect, and just slides off with hardly any effort. (The new passive grip took a rubber mallet to install, hope the Air duster trick works when i have to remove it later.)
