Stock brake line works fine! I probably could have routed the clutch correctly but just didnt wanna take the chance. Thanks for all the comments guys!

Yeah the Cluth was pretty damned tight, but i was able to get it to work.

For the guy asking about tricks to threading the wires, there's some good threads with some great ideas to help you out, I started one when I did mine to ask some questions...you can go to my page to find it. Helpful info. That being said...if someone is selling them prewired, I'd go that route in a new York second!

I don't care for the style, and they are closer, but still a hair low. No major end drop, no pullback that is HD or more, and not broomstick drag bar. No need for a flare in style, just 1 or 1.25 standard round bar type. Just can't believe nobody makes it.

Those look awesome. Thinking of those for my Ultra. I have the fairing mirrors too. Do these bars work with these mirrors or do you have to change them out?

They've become pretty much useless. At least for me..
