Never noticed that......
Note the bends in (at the lever and at the keeper on the downtube)) and the routing of the clutch cable. I had the same issue when I did my buckhorns (with Jim's Spacers) and could not stand it. Went with 4" over for the clutch cable and brake line. Re-routing the throttle cables to the right side of the backbone/neck provided plenty of slack. Does not look like that's done on this one....
Davin, there has to be issues with the cables and brake line, right?
