Default New bars
Finally got around to installing my 14' burly apes! Used all stock wires and cables, everything fits perfect! Probably gonna change my clutch/throttle if I have some extra cash tho but for now I love the handling of the new bars and most of all the transformation! Here are some before pics and the after pics and some more pics of mine and my buddy's bike... Big shout out to my homie Gant and the forum for all the help!!

Bars look good in black.
Also good to see your water heater 18" above the garage floor where it supposed to be.

You can just reroute your clutch cable. It will give you a couple of inches of slack. Did that with mine. Only needed to buy idle /throttle cable.

Looks good. Like st bob said reroute the clutch cable. I moved mine to the right down tube and routed it behind the trees on the right side of the backbone then up and over. It got rid of the tension bend and worked get with my 15's.

I actually routed it this way idk if this is a bad way but it works real well and gave me tons of slack!

That's almost like mine. Since I have that crazy angle at the grips I didn't like the tension there so I went on the right side of the backbone. I think your is fine as long as there is no binding in the clutch. Mine got rear stiff!!
