question for guys running chubby ape hangers

Hey i got my 16" chubby apes in and im looking at them next to the bike and I'm wondering...

will the section that's 1" accommodate the brake/clutch reservoirs, wiring housing and the grip. or....

did you have to mount the reservoirs on the 1.25" part of the handlebar, and if so how did you do it and how is it working out?

The reservoirs, lever clamps and grips all take 1". The rest of the handlebar can be 1 1/4 or 1 1/2, except at the bar clamps on top on top of triple tree. Remember, on the switch housings, you have to remove the locator pin to get it to clamp up correctly.....
