Default 10 Inch Monkey Bars Pulled back
Well i think the bars are going to have to go sooner than I was planning.

I like the looks of the monkey bars but not sure how they look pulled back some. Anyone running them pulled back and are you hands behind the fairing?

Any other bars similar i should look at?

Also from what Ive seen if i go with something around 10 inchs the clutch cable is the only thing that wont reach. Is this right?

I have some pics on here some where of mine pulled back. They are 10s, no need to change cables.

I'm gonna try to stop by Yaffe's shop this week to investigate, as I'd like to add a set of 10" Monkey Bars.
