I really like the look of the bars. I had him make the bars the same specs ish as my gimps. So ya the comfort is there cause those gimps were the most comfy I've used but the fit and finish with the BR bars are just awesome. When you look at the bends you would think its actually one piece. Texas Outlaw sold me on the bend in the bars. He's got the sickest train with that American Dragon springer front end.
Cables are Magnum black pearl. I had those with my gimps but the extra bend made my clutch cable tight so I ordered a new one. Which was a must do anyway cause the clutch cable was broken when my riser bolts snapped last season.
Front blinkers are Joker Machine. Those guys are awesome I had a blinker board give out a few months after buying them so he sent me two replacement boards and bulbs. They also made the air cleaner cover exactly the way I asked them. So nothing but good things to say about JM.

I have always just ran a flipped left mirror on apes. Trick is to adjust it as you are riding (I don't mean constantly - just when getting it in position the 1st time) It aint the greatest, but it's enough to see if something is coming up behind me ~~ a bit of the force helps too lol

Sorry about reviving a dead thread, but your xbones is the nicest I've ever seen. Kudos! Love the BR bars. Do you happen to still have all the measurements and dimensions for those? I can't find any on BR's site that have that awesome curve like yours so I imagine they were made exactly to your specs. It's a long shot but figured I would give it a try!
