Default For those of you with Biltwell 8" Chumps

I ordered some Chumps handlebars for my 48 and I know everyone says the stock cables are long enough to reach but looking at that clutch cable I just can't see how it's possible. Anyone out there with Chumps had a problem with the clutch or any other connections?

I know the brake line has to be bent or replaced. Does the bending method look like sh#t?

Any info/opinions would be great - Thanks.

I put them on my Iron and had to get a longer brake line. The clutch was fine.

Yeah, I think I might get a new brake line too. I don't really understand how/where people are bending the stock brake line to make it work. I would to see a photo if anyone has one.
