It worked out fine. Disconnected the lines, rotated the splitter to the right, and reconnected the lines. Everything lined up perfectly! The clutch and throttle lines are next!

That is pretty much what my race shop carry's. They are very reasonable.
I am going to replace all my lines. It will give the brake and clutch a much more positive feel

Where did you guys get your 12" bars? I want some but am on a budget. I am trying to stay under $50 if I can.

Under $50? I didn't find any that cheap when I was shopping for them. Mine were about $120. Good luck!

Jeriah cycles has them cheaper and so do a few other places, but they don't fit what I need.... Im 6'5" so I can't get comfortable on most things! I have baught a few sets in the past for that price, but not for a bike this big. Hell I may just make another set!

I'm 6'2" and the 12" bars are just right for me. I wanted some elevation but wanted to stay even with or below the top of my fairing. If you are keeping the windshield then you could get higher bars or add risers. If I had the means, I would have loved o make my own.

re routing lines.

so i recently purchased the santee 11" bagger bars, and am in the process of replacing handlebars.


Question is: Did you guys removed the top of the tree to reroute the lines, or remove the chrome plated cover directly behind the headlight and feed brake lever with line through... not sure which direction to go unless i disconnect the lines?


Thanks, kevin

When I installed my 12" bars, I removed the lines and replaced with SS lines +4" from GalferUSA.
