Easy, peasy. Little known trick with the VM's is to leave the cable tower off until you get them in. Cables and tower can be easily installed after the fact ...not so with the CV carbs.'84 GS750EF (Oct 2015 BOM) '79 GS1000N (June 2007 BOM)Comment

Will decide at some point which picture entry to keep.http://webpages.charter.net/ddvrnr/GS850_1100_Emblems.jpg

The Rusty Old Scooter as mentioned in my signature.
Despite 55 years, rust and checked paint, it still manages to have a bit of shine...
