Looking for info on extensions for cables, wiring , lines for roadsters. I’m needing taller bars to accommodate my lanky arms. I know I’ll need to extend all wiring for controls just looking for pointers or advice on best way to go about it.

The cables you can have made to order, take the old ones off, measure them, add the amount you are moving the controls back,
the wires you can easily splice and crimp and solder in and if you feel frisky you can even order the right colour wire, a set of depining tools and new pins and just make the wires longer and the brake lines, same as the cables, plenty of companies that you can get lines in the right length you need with the right ends.
just takes a little bit of sourcing unless you have $$$ to blow on high end custom order stuff, you can just order generic level stuff.
If you do not know where to start, call around local bike shops and ask them who they order from, have them do the wiring and you do the rest!? or just bring it in for an oil change and from the look of it new front tire soon
Might i ask what brand are those crash bars?
 
if you are going to ride at night then you need new head light bulbs/lens
 
ah... what? aren't they connected to the triple tree?
Original headlights are junk the high beams shine in the tree tops and low beams is in front of the front tire.
when you dim the lights you can not see where you are going.

Got it. I never knew, I got mine with them smashed.
Highly recommend JW speaker for replacements. There is no better light.

Sorry for the late response, the crash bar is by Craftride. Extremely sturdy and really completes the look
 
On the cables barnett just adds from stock what you tell them, +1.5, +2 thats inches so whatever you need they will make. They offer 3 types of cables, last i ordered.
