Default New bars finally installed

Finally got he wiring done and the brake line stretched enough.
I know I need new cables, but I thought I'd post the pics so far.

P.S. thanks Jayfrompa, I was worried about the bars not being worth the change, but after a short ride today, its just where I wanted them, and I really like the look, I know a lot of people don't like the bars wider than the trees but I like these bars on my ride..

Looks real good man.
And just think you didn't have to wait two months to get powdercoated ones from Nash at twice the price.
Good job.....

Those look great! I'm going for a similar look, maybe just a hair narrower.

Anybody know how wide the bars from a X-Bones are, or if they're even taller than the stockers from an FXDB?

Looks cool.

Did you unhook the cables underneath the tank?

Looks like they may work if you can unhook them and get some more slack.
