Thanks!

The front wheel is a 21" off of a wide glide. The rear is the stock street bob's 17 inch

Update: I want to get back to work, but I have had a severe case of vertigo for a week now. I test fit the new front brake line, it seems that it will work out perfectly.

Vertigo and motorcycles don't mix well my friend. Stay off of that machine until you get it figured out.
From my experience vertigo is a temporary condition, however it can sometimes last for several weeks.

Update: the Harley bar end mirrors do not tighten in the handlebars, cheap chinese plastic mirrors with poor hardware. So I went back to the drawing board.

I am now going to use the Joker Machine open end grips and a pair of highsider bar end mirrors with LED turn signal in the mirror stem.

You can see the bar end mirror here:

This is the grips I will use:

both the switch wiring and bar end led turn signal wiring will run cleanly inside of the handlebar.

PS: these new bar bar end mirrors are made in Germany. I think they will be better quality.

Contacted Harley today and these switches will arrive to me in about a month. Been waiting on these! When these arrive I can finally get some work done.

Not much to show as far as progress. Took the drag bar back off the Harley. Gathering parts that I have for it. Waiting on more parts to arrive for wiring & assembly.
