29.5" drag bar w/ stock risers 2012 883 *update-installed*
Im planning on running this setup on my '12 iron 883... 29.5" drag bar with a 15 degree sweep/0 rise on stock risers.
Here is the link to the bar:

I plan doing the brake line, I don't want to deal with the stock line kinking a little (though I know most of you don't have an issue with this). What length do you think will work for my application? Will a stock length ss braided line suffice for how it should bend down towards the wheel?
Also, if any of you know recommend other 28-29.5" drag bars with no rise/10-15 degree sweep/knurled, (preferably less than 15 deg sweep) would be awesome! I wouldn't mind internally wiring them them either, actually I'd rather do it that way.
Thanks everyone

************UPDATE-Drag Bars on!

I got the bars on, passed on the ss lines, and got new grips instead. See below for pics.
-Debrix 29.5 Drag bars (I drilled holes in there to internally wire them)
-Joker Machine Clamp with slot for stock indicator strip
-Auto Gem baby bullet signals
-DIY speedo relocation with autometer clamps
-Flipped mirrors
-Black Kurykan ISO Grips
-DIY Turn signal brackets-used this link as a general guide since I used different signals
before/after
powder coated:
diy signal bracket:
Overall impression, love it!!1231!! I naturally sit a little more forward, so the drag bars fit my riding stance perfectly. The housings on the drag bar also clear the tank from lock to lock with room to spare. And the grips are so damn comfortable, it's amazing.
