That is Wicked !!

Do you have more pics from the front, of the bars specifically ? Man that is clean. I really like it !!

I had not see many options for hiding the clutch and throttle cables.

What did you do on the slave cylinder side on the clutch ?

Thanks for sharing Frank !!

It is a clean look....no doubt. That .....what looks like a master cylinder on the left side, is for the clutch??

Clutch cable goes inside the bars, then down the right tube of the frame up to the trans, then out. At the same time I changed the trans to a standard evo trans. That required changing the tranny mount plate by raising it up about 1/2 inch and drilling new mount holes.

Eddie Trotta - He made a bunch of stuff for me - but those are stock items they use to carry. Not sure if he still makes them for the general public or not.

How does the throttle work?

Cables inside the bars?

Yes - I drilled a hole in the bars. Also cut off the ends of the BDM bars and welded on stock Harley ends to run normal controls. Then re-chrome everything. I tried other bars, but the BDM fits me perfectly and they have a nice look /flow with the bike lines.

Yes, unlike Lambo I left my bars and just slid the controls over the ends.
Being larger stature I always hated how the bars pulled my arms in at an angle.
Because of the way the custom controls are designed they slid on without mods to the bars and made them about 1.5 inches wider on each side so now I have a comfortable riding stance.
Here is a link to their site:

Custom Cycle Controls

On the first page you see the bars a little lower with their controls. They show the wires coming out at the ends of the bars under the triple trees but mine are still the way BD did them where the wires etc run out of the bar above the triple tree.

Oh so the controls fit over the 1.5" thicker bars too?

No they fit over the 1" portion of the BD bars and butt up to the 1.25" edge.
It's been quite a while since it was done. I can't remember 100% if we had to take a little off the ends of the bars so the controls would butt cleanly to the 1.25" edge.
