I see you got rid of fairing mirrors, did they not work with 10 inch bars? I just bought 10 " Yaffe bars and of course I just this summer ditched stock mirrors and put on fairing mirrors. I couldn't see past my shoulders with stock mirrors on stock bars. So if they don't work I guess I have some holes to fill.

Fairing mirrors do not work with a 10"... i just fill holes to look more clean

If you go with a 10" you will be fine on all cables, but the clutch cable. You will have to get the next sixe up. I put WO578's on my SG and put a next longer clutch cable on and all other lines and wires work great
