Red: Handlebar Mounts

After realizing the handlebar holders I had on were too short to fit both cushions, I decided to file down the alignment pin on a spare.  One of the other ones was already filed so I just needed to do one more.

Was originally going to Dremel it, but ended up just using the hand file and only took 10 mins of filing to get it smooth.

After that, did a quick sanding with 120 and 220 and some Autosol.  May need to come back in the future with the Dremel to really shine it up.  Or maybe paint...?

Mounted on the bike complete with cushions.  The reason the picture is so dark is because it was already past dusk!
