Looks like a nice symmetrical cut, good job.
You might find you might need mirror extenders to stop your hands & levers hitting the missions on full lock
Hand just clear the glass on full lock and my elbows take up half the rear view. Although not an issue I might look into extenders, thanks for the tip.
I’m happy with the cuts and surprised I did a good job, I’m not known for cutting straight

Can’t stop riding it, it’s definitely added to the bike.

I'm glad you're loving the handlebar conversion
It was either that or change bikes for me, but I didn't want to change bikes, so this conversion was ideal
Chris.
Definitely easier on my thumbs and the tingling in my right fingers has gone, just can’t believe how this has changed the bike for the better.
Modified P clip worked a treat on clutch line too.
Think I can call this conversation finished now.
