Cable routing with clipons
« on: June 20, 2012, 10:44:30 AM »
The CB550 has cables routing through the bars to the controls.  For those that have changed to clipons, how have you gone about keep the cables neat and unobtrusive?

Go custom, or have a lot of extra wire bunched up in places that are easy to pinch.

its possible. i have clip ons and the cables do hang but they dont pinch.... alot of people have clip ons and trust me most of them dont get custom cables made.

just experiment. if you want some super clean look or something then ya you can fork the dough for some custom length cables
