    Started my install this weekend of the LSL kit. I appreciate all the info others have on this site.
    I can add one or two things from my experience with this kit.

    First off the Speigler site states that all kits come with all necessary hardware, hose, cables etc.
    This is not true IMHO. The only way to make the throttle cable work is to route it in front of the
    tank bolts and you have to remove the inner cowl (the small black piece) so the cable will clear.
    This just doesn't seem right to me. I want my inner cowl in place, not in storage in my garage.
    So it seems that the only correct way to use this kit is with a longer throttle cable. I guess I will
    be ordering one.

    One tip I can give is instead of disconnecting the brake and clutch lines if you remove the triple tee
    you can rearrance the hydraulic lines easily. I also tried rerouting the throttle cable behind the fork
    to gain space but you cannot gain enough this way. It is dangerous to bind the throttle cables so
    consider using longer ones.

    I will contact STG to see about the throttle cable issue and will post again after I have resolved
    my issue.

    The bars and risers are first class. The finish is top notch and I would like the finished project to
    be top notch.

    Thanks again to everyone that posted info on this subject.

    Sorry bout no pics but there are plenty other threads with photos of this install.
    My photos would not be unigue. I'am still waiting for my longer throttle cable so
    I can finish the install and see if the LSL bars are any better than the Helibars that
    I had on the bike.

    Maybe if you had put an lol or something else at the end of your thread, people like myself would have realised that you were possibly trying to be humorous. Not a big deal, you have apologized which shows you do have some character. Have a nice day, jerk.:tongue:

    Jeez. Look away for a day and people get all SHTREET UP IN HEAH!!!!!

    I thought corndog was just playing along (when in Rome and all). Good on him for talking it out. We're firm but fair. If I haven't said so, welcome to both corndogs and basscat.

    When I made my own bar kit, I just disconnected the lines since I needed to bleed the clutch anyway. I had no issues with plastics when I routed the throttle cables under the tank, but perhaps the 6th has more plastic than mine?
