Ness fwd control extension kit.

I'm 6'2" and the length is good for everything but the kickstand, I had to bend the tab back a little.

I can't seem to get over how the extended controls throw off the lines on the bike. As if they just don't flow the same.
I know in the end it's a matter of preference, but is there a some type of guide that says if you are 6'1" you should use +1 controls?? Kind of like when you get sized for a bicycle. There is guide as to where or how much you should bend your legs and arm postion.

It comes down to whatever's comfortable to you. I do agree about the looks though. I think at some point I'm gonna get one of those front spoilers to fill in the area between the controls.

Back Again- Thanks man, the shift linkage is from ToughLinks.

I agree, on my Crossbone because I want to keep my floorboards, I moved the seat back 3"(Work In progress), I'm thinking about an stretched tank to fill the gap.

But keep the forward control pics coming, my nephew is thinking about making some for his bike and I'd like to give him some ideas.
