It's getting there!
Installed new V&H Straightshots tonight, added 4" risers last night for a more comfortable position and to unclutter the area between the eyebrow and the speedo.
Dusted off and polished my set of PM Villain wheels, but I need to have a larger rear tire installed before I do the swap.

Installing the risers was easy, just tight wrenching space so cover what you might "bang" with a wrench with painter's tape (easier to get off than duct tape).
Even with my long arms, the original bar position wasn't comfortable, elbows are bent and arms relaxed now.
I had tried a set of 4" pullbacks first...but didn't like the angle that it put on the speedo.
2" tank riser ordered over the weekend!

Did you have to extend any of the cables?

Got them a few years ago for a Sporty chopper build, but didn't use them. I had plenty enough wiring, but JUST enough brake line and clutch cable. Cable was fine, but putting the windshield back on kinda took all of what little play there was left.
