Unscrew the old ones at the headstock and put the new ones on where the old ones went and screw them in at the right spot (where you whant them) and do them up tight.

not so easy. first the head light has to come out, the a 5/16 nut inside the head light housing holding on the trim piece that need to come off. one that's off the plastic trim piece on ignition need to be pried off gently, then remove the 2 screws and that cover will come off giving you access to the handle bar mounts

First, remove the ring around the headlamp; just one little screw on the bottom. Lift the ring out and up. Next, remove the 7 or 8 black Phillips screws that hold the whole headlamp assembly on. Next unplug the headlamp. Then remove the 5/16 nut on the little chrome piece that looks like an arrow, and remove that piece. After you remove the arrow piece you will notice a little screw on the front side of the cover. It needs to be removed as well, but it has a very small 5/16 nut and washer on the bottom side.

Pry up the cover over the key lock on the back side of the handlebar cover (the plastic piece that says "lock and unlock"). Under that there are two screws that need to be removed. After doing all this, you can remove the cover and get to the clamp that holds the handlebars. The clamp is held on by 4, 1/4 inch Allen-head bolts.

Loosen those and move the handlebars to the desired position and tighten the Allen strongly when you're done.

Reassembly is the reverse of these steps.
