Default New Flanders bars

Had these bars and risers on for a few weeks now and so far i,m liking them.They are Flanders Clubmans Wide that i got off ebay, i cut the slots for internal wiring and powder coated them. Had to go with new 3" risers to give clearance when on full lock. Being lower and less pullback than my previous bars i,m feeling more "connected" to the front end and also less of a sail.
At the same time i put on some smaller turn signals. They are led,s and although pretty small are bright. I,m not sure about the rears yet i might move them to a position just aft of the shocks top mount.
All in all i,m happy with the setup...for now.LOL

How wide are the bars? I just switched to the Flanders Flat Track (G5) and like them a lot.

Your setup looks good but the throttle cables look a bit long.

They are 31 1/2" wide. Yes i,d like to change the throttle cable and also the brake cable for shorter cables. Probably when the next set of pads go in i,ll change, might do the clutch cable as well, all in black.
