Hey guys,
I got ahold of some new handlebars that essentially are 13-14" or so ape hangars. I currently have drag bars on my 74 KZ400 and always have been wondering how it would look with bars like apes or zbars, etc. Anyway, I was walking to go study today and found one of those old school low rider bicycle things in the trash on campus... I looked at the bars that were on there and long behold, 7/8" and they look awesome on the bike...
Thing is, I haven't taken off my drag bars yet to see if the cables are long enough, but being as tall as they are compared to stock... I think I'll probably need to run longer cables...
Basically, my question is... How do I go about running longer cables up to my throttle as well as my clutch? And what do I do with the front brake... It's a disc so it's a hose and not just a cable. I'm still pretty new to riding motorcycles and I do rely on my front brakes still so I am hesitant to take them off... even tho it would just look super clean...
Any advice or tips would be great
