This way is MUCH less scary when it's a nice bike you care about.

I really hope you got some decent flushmounts. So many people still seem to use the style from the early 90's that uses WOODSCREWS you screw into the bodywork to mount them and they are FAR from flush. Whenever I see them on a bike manufactured 00 or later I just want to KILL the rider.
