*** REPLACE THIS nuevo WITH YOUR super ***

drilling... not a very good idea.  on any brand bar, thinnest to thickest,
you are fooling with the structural integrity of the bar.  I have heard
reports of bars failing at the hole and snapping and I have witnessed
stress cracks around the holes on a friends bars.  Im sure that there is 
a ( right ) way to do this but i'd rather leave it up to the people who
know how than to risk sheering of part of the bar and ripping my self up.
oh well... just an opinion.
