What did you do with the wireing block that was in the pull back risers, did you tuck it under the tank?

i think they are 8 in...there is no more wireing on the 1200c than the other models with a standard speedo....did no tucking or extra hiding of wires....

Looking good. I am thinking about going with those same bars except with the factory Custom riser. Did you have to change your cables?

no I was able to keep my factory cables, the brake line was a bit of a reach i had to bend it to shape, if you stick with the factory custom risers you will need new cables....

you got any more pics?
I'm interested in this set-up as well
1.looking from the saddle toward the bars
2.looking down at the top of the tree's/riser's (from above the tank)

and another "Q" did you have to swap the speedo housing?
or would the stock one have worked too?

as requested, internal wireing and turn signal relocation are on my to do list, but im pretty lazy......You can use the custom riser but you will need new cables wire extension and extended brake line

I like the way everything came out, by chance you don't have the part number for the new speedo and risers do you?? I have 12" apes on my custom and would like to change out the riser to the same as yours but in chrome. Thanks for any info.
