I like the black one better, it's not as upright as the flame one. Looks more sporty. |

Odie....Mind you, the bars were 32" wide and I cut 1 1/4" off EACH side. They are now 29 1/2" compared to 27 1/2" stock. No problem with cables other than rerouting the clutch under the bar and clamp. Make sure that your lever mounts are not on the curve of the bar. It will mess with your clutch pull and cause the fuel pump to not to start. In hindisght I would off cut only 1" off EACH side. Ride position and feel is totally different and MUCH better. Here is a pic of my brake line. It is a little bowed but not a problem. SBulet....Looking good. I like the black better. More streamline than the DoubleBubble. I asked Chrissy..."See motorcycle mods are fun", "don't you want to help us more often?" Maybe she could be a new addition to the FBPC. |

Just so there is no confusion....Tools meaning....Hair dryer! Glitch....I used some Chicago screws here at the office. They are used to hold the joints in an articulating Ankle Foot Orthosis...if your wondering. |
