Rebuild run ins

Cam
I went with drag bars on my bike and obviously they're too short for the stock master cylinder. Any suggestions on a smaller one that will go on without hitting my gauges?

I have drag bars with the stock master cylinder. My issue is the throttle line elbows touch the tank when bars are turned to the right. Here's a pic of the bike a couple years ago. Also, it's a good idea to include in your post a year and model. This is a 76 750k.

Mine is a 78 750k. I put the bars on and the master cylinder ended up so close that the rubber boot coming off it gets shoved into the tach. If i had another inch i'd probably be fine haha

Try using spacers to move the gauge mount, for clearance.
