peteinpa 170 Posted November 11, 2020 I have a V-Stream Sport, came on my bike used. I have nothing to compare it to. Maybe ignorance is bliss. I want to angle it more towards me. Less upright. Has anyone shimed or bent the mounting hardware to do this? Since all V-Stream sizes mount the same it applies. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
angrygirafe 462 Posted November 11, 2020 I’ve shimmed mine with washers. Didn’t do anything for me. I think to get any noticeable difference, you’ll need enough shims to require longer bolts, and then you might want to bend the bracket to avoid weird gaps/pressure points. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
peteinpa 170 Posted November 11, 2020 I took it all apart, bent the bracket a bit, machined top spacers thinner, and shimed the bottom mounts. It at least looks better. Follows the angles of the bike instead of looking like a tombstone sticking straight up. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
