well my brake cable is a little tight for comfort and my electrical cables will snap if turn all the way left. I undid the zip ties as well and it looks like crap. I wonder why mine are shorter than everyone else's.

Riser spacers
I just installed a set of 1 1/2" chrome spacers on my risers. That little bit of a spacer makes a difference. I like the drag bars but wanted them a little bit closer. Since they are a little up and back you aren't streching as much (I'm 6'2" so I didn't strectch to much anyway). Only thing I had to unhook was the Master Cylinder line from the frame. There was enough slack in all of the other cables.
Thanks,
Rich

I only looked because I was wondering where he got them too! I have a good friend who has a Breakout.

I don't believe anyone is selling them anymore. I had mine made at a local machine shop. I purchased 1-3/4 diameter aluminum bar stock 1-3/4" long and had them finish the ends, then bore a clearance hold for a 1/2" bolt.
Then I had mine powdercoated. I purchased my bolts from Fastenal.
All total I have about $60 in them.
Hope that helps.

Right on. I appreciate the help and will have to see if I can get that done.

Just looked into doing that. Pretty easy process. Only question I have for you is this: Did you purchase them 1-3/4" long and have them machined down to 1-1/2" or did you do with an overall length of 1-3/4"?
