Apes done.

The 14's look really good and I can continue using the stock mirrors. I put 13's on Elvira, but had to put mirrors on the bars because I couldn't see under my arms to use the stock ones.

Ok, have the bars. Getting ready to order clutch cable and brake line. Lots of squirrely opinions on the interwebs about lengths and whether or not I need just an upper line or upper and mid line (ABS). I went with 12" Monkey Bars in Black. The wiring doesn't skeer me as much as making sure I get the correct length cable and line plus knowing the correct line to get.

Is the factory line from the master cylinder to the ABS module a 1 or 2 piece? I'd be looking myself but I'm not at home......

Oh, and while I'm in there, a set of heat demons grip warmers will be going in. I'm not going back in twice......

Thanks!

The 575s I had were 10", and I needed a 2" longer brake line. If I remember correctly, you have to replace the entire line, as the stock one isn't modular.
