Narrowed the night train bars 3" this morning. Not very noticeable in pictures, nice difference on the bike. I would've liked to have gone narrower, but the dimples in these bars make it a pain to mount the levers...think I'll probably pick up a cheap, narrow drag bar until I have the extra cash for the bars I posted previously.

Before and after. (Crazy how close the pictures are, huh? lol)

It's noticeable if you know what you're looking for ... the levers are closer to the bend in the bars ... also the throttle grip appears to be a little closer to the brake lever ... you used a white towel ...

Yup, used the towel to cover the bike/tank while I hit the bars with the angle grinder. Good eye!

Just a tip, start your own thread, bud. Afterward, give this a read:
