Default 10" Monkey Bars are on!

Love them so far! Perfect height for me. Still need to remove the stock mirrors though.




UPDATE- Routed the cable inside the fairing and added mirrors.

They are the stock wires and cables. The clutch cable was a little too tight. It doesn't look as clean unfortunately but there's plenty of play now.

Those look good. I thought the 10" would sit a little lower than they do. Can you please take a photo from the back of the bike? I wonder if Yaffe would make some 9" bars.
