Wild One 502s with stock cables...Installed
#11
Looks like the clamp would work better if it was attached to the neck area, but I really don't want to drill a hole in my neck
just for a clamp. Maybe I can get away with one of those bar type clamps.
You are right, the clamp is where it's binding when stretched out.
Other than that, it looks like it should be plenty long the way it is.
Thanks for the help
Looked again, maybe I need to run it inside the bars like in your pic. Going to try that out.

I just picked up a set of KST Kustoms Mayhem 1 1/4" - 12" apes (black) and waiting for new Magnum Shielding Black Pearl cables to replace the MS Chromite II I have on now. The KST look a lot like PY monkey bars but at half the price and made in Georgia. I ain't gonna have to re-route anything and should look great. Can't wait to get the WO 508's off the bike. Hard to believe I put up with these bars for 2 years. Like steering a wheelbarrow.... Glad you were able to make it work for you but I hate cutting corners.

In terms of looks, its the higher the better for me but...My finger tips go numb if my hands are equal to my shoulder so I had to do these. I think the rise to the top if the bars is an actual 12.5" but will try to measure later. Wild1 has all the specs on their site as well.

I am looking at those 502s to put on my 13 rkc. those stock bars suuuckkk.
I was being held back due to having to bleed the abs by digitech and not having the time right now to run up to the dealer to do this. So, by dropping the fork and rerouting the brake line, i don't eben need to un hook any brake lines at all and compromise the abs system.
Looks like i need to get the extend tbw set i am good to go? The clutch does look plenty long!
