Spuds, did you thread the end of the handle bar 1/2-13 or 1/2-20 to mount the hand guards? thanks, rj

I threaded the end of the handlebars with a 1/2-13 tap. The coarse threaded bolts are easier to find. Also, it is easier to install the 13 tpi bolt, since the bolt grabs the threads more easily. I used 1-inch long bolts, but I still have a lot of thread available inside the handlebars. Therefore, I am going to install either 1-1/2 inch, or 2-inch long bolts. This installation is very strong; I am pleased with the results.

What items are in the optional dash kit? Why does it include a relay?

The relay is for the USB port, to drop the voltage to 5 volts (I suspect it is a transformer, instead of a relay)

This was just my assumption...I have nothing to back that up....but would need something to drop the voltage....and the Lighter plug works without the "relay" plugged in, so it has to be for the USB plug
