I used these from Drag Specialties. Helps to hold the clutch cable up.
Edit: helps to keep the clutch cable from sagging in the clutch perch.

I used the same thing sbates posted for my clutch cable since I went with 16 twin peaks. Made a noticeable difference keeping the clutch cable from sagging. I didnt get one for the brake cause that one just falls into place and doesn't move at all.

Youll love the 16s they are real comfortable. I rode 8 hours and had zero back or shoulder pain. I invested in some gauntlet gloves and they took care of the cold weather riding.

I catch myself bent over a lot with old bars hope to solve the problem can't wait to try them out. Currently have inch plus of snow so good timing for the upgrades.

that is/was one of the best mods i can say i did.... it's at least in the top 3. the factory bars sucked with my shoulder and back injuries. with the apes, it makes for a while new ride!
