i'd say about pretty close to 6", down bends are more than the stock at the grips"

I'm running the same bars, IMO they are the perfect set up for the narrow SB front end.

When you changed out the clutch cable did you have to take off your pipes or were you able to get to everything without taking them off?

I always chicken out on doing anything but basic stuff. Cause if I start and need to get something to finish. Closest dealership is an hour away and they stock next to nothing so my bob is sitting in twenty pieces waiting for 1 bolt. Trust me it happens. Anyway nice bars.

Yes I had to take my Big Shots off to get to the clutch plate bolts, depends on what pipes you have you may not need to take them off as long as you have access.

Yeah I have Big Shots too. So, I probably would. Did you just have to change out the gasket on the pipes when you put them back on?
