While you have everything apart, pull the top triple clamp and move the front brake line to the back.
 
I use black zip ties down at the bottom cross bar, pull a little of the slack out from behind the head stock cover.

Run the brake line behind instead of in front.

I also removed the cable guides, had a touch of throttle cable bind when using them.

Adjustment time will be very very short, the new hand angle feels 100x more natural than the stock bars.

It makes you feel like a king !!
 
I have my brake line in front of the top yoke ( as shown on the black bike) .....the orange bike is how some bikes come from the factory

Nice puss.


The cat doesn’t look too impressed to be fair!

Just a bar related question while I’m here,I also have a pair of these to go on when my front end goes back together. Can you reuse the old bar weight ends as the threaded insert in the old bars don’t seem to want to part company.
