Convertibars left bar end distance to ground from centerstand

Now with the convertibars installed, the measured distance from the top of the left bar end to ground, from the centerstand, is now 1010mm. Which was 12mm taller than the Helibars. This may not seem much, as it's only 1/2 inch taller. But the bars are further back toward the riding position and that makes a big difference. See other pictures of the convertibars taken from the front and top.


The bars can be adjusted to go higher for another inch, but my Galfer brake/clutch lines and throttle cable ran out of room. I will need longer brake/clutch lines and longer throttle cable if I want to go higher. The current brake/clutch lines are 2" longer than stock and the throttle cable is stock.
