Thanks for the info, I'm sure 12" would be the way to go, then I guess depending on seat height etc. The mirrors may or may not work.

I can see mine, but it may be height dependent. I'm 5'11" with a 32" inseam.

Perfect I did the MBB 10's about 4yrs ago on my EGC. All you need is +4 Clutch cable everything else will reach. If don't buy newer Screaming Eagle Throttle by Wire I highly recommend you cut plug out and solder stock TBW. It's been going strong for me for 4 yrs. I posted below in thread at one time but couldn't find it but I'd put it in word doc so here it is. Patience and beer is your friend good luck!

Got the install done basically following Yaffe instructions. Harbor Freight was jackpot for materials! I used Carbon Steel Welding wire .0123" thin wire but strong won't break! I used .095 weedwacker line to thread welding wire. Used 2 sizes ofshrink tubing 10mm x5M & 8mm x 5M. I used the 10mm shrink for left & right control wire bundles. Used the 8mm shrink for the TBW sensor bundle. I did cutout the infamous green TBW connector eliminating it and soldered and shrink wrapped. Picked up up bottle of Ideal Clear Glide at Lowes for lubing wire bundles and it worked out good.
Harbor Freight item numbers
10mm x 5mm Shrink wrap 98067 $2.99
8mm x 5mm Shirnk warp 98066 $2.99
Welding wire .023 4" spool 42915 $5.99

Here's the TBW green connector wiring elmination got from another forum .

Next is to draw a diagram of the two ends of the green connectors so you know which wires to connect when we cut off the connector. HD has split the wires coming from the sensor into two group with two different color shrink wraps:Black and Yellow. I will now refer to these as Black side wires and yellow side wires. Each side has a white wire, black wire, and red wire. This is what it looks like:
Here is how the wires will hook up.

Blue Wire------(Black Side) White Wire

Brown Wire----(Black Side) Red Wire

Black Wire-----(Black Side) Black Wire

Grey Wire-----(Yellow Side) Black Wire

Red Wire------(Yellow Side) Red Wire

Purple Wire----(Yellow Side) White Wire
