They require a 25mm hole in each fairing panel and bolt directly into an engine mount.
A competent person could fit both in about 1~1.5 hours.

err... Bobby... part of the question was "where do I get them from?" You usually don't miss a sales opportunity, age is getting to you mate! OK, lowbird, you get it from: www.gobybike.com - which, incidentally, is Bob's website - now Bob, that's got to qualify for a hefty discount for me for R&G, advertising fee and all!!! w;;v
