Yep no problem.
loosen the bar pinch bolts, and slide the bars out of the triple cover.
remove the bolts for the master cylinders and set them out of the way.
loosen the 4 allen bolts in the triple cover, while holding the hex nut on the bottom, remove the four bolts, nuts and washers.
lift off the old cover.
place new cover on, slide bolts thru the cover and torque w/ associated washers and hex nuts.
Slide bar's into new cover and tighten.
Place the master cylinders in their respective location, checking for clearance issues, tighten.
Now, with assistance, loosen bottom clamp hex bolts, 10mm, 2ea. and then top clamp hex bolts. Once all them are loosened the forks will want to slide up thru the clamp and cover. At this point, your extra set of hands will hold under the nose to ensure bike doesn't squat down on the forks too far. Lightly tap the clamp with rubber mallet if the forks dont want to slide. Once sliding has begun, measure, measure, measure how far you adjust one side, tighten the pinch bolts top clamp first, cover and bottom, then adjust the opposite side to match. Enjoy.
