I did a search and couldn't find what I was looking for so...
How much of a rise before you need to think about getting longer lines? I'm thinking I'd like to go 1" closer and 3 inches higher. What will doing that entail?

Well...I had 4" rise and 7" pullback...lines were fine.I did have to turn the throttle pod 180 degrees though making the cables go under instead of over like stock.Also cut the end of each bar off by about an 1"...and needed to install some acerbis endcaps on there to mount the factory bar ends.Not sure now IF I had to actually cut those down because of lines fitment...I don't think so.I just wanted the grips to be 'in' more.

Grn14,
Please let us know the make, model #, where you purchased etc. I looked into several places but all required new lines to be installed. In fact, some even come with lines. Thank you in advance!

Got mine today, now I just have to uuuhh wait for my bike to be delivered. It appears you could potentially get the bars 1 1/2 inched closer to youm is that possible or does the tank get in the way? And I'm still skeptical about not needing lines.

Now that I think of it...I seem to recall the brake line(front)WAS longer(came with the set)....I'm pretty sure now....I had to remove the line block and fashion a bracket as well to bring it over to the right under there about a half inch....something like that...it's been a while...
