Looking good! The clutch cable is nice and tapered as well. Cleans up the bars nice. Any clearance isues with the throttle cables and tank?

Yeah throttle cables are banging the tank if I turn to much. Just being careful. NExt I will relocate the turn signals to clean them up even more.

Speaking of the throttle cables will a different angle cable (either 45 or 130 degree) help that any? I need to replace those as the black casing is wearing off

That's an easy mod. I made my own brackets to mount on the fork. Turn sigs look good when you bring them down.

97fxstsb - I never even noticed your signals until you just pointed them out! I like 'em!

Another option is Signal mirrors I went with the ones from Heartland Biker. A little more pricey than 97s fix but eliminates the turn signals from the front end.

Skull I saw yours and loved them. Found them on heartlands website, then saw the price. I want the style, just not the price and function.
