does it get in the way when you are going slow and have to turn the bars to the right? i notice it bunches up when i turn the bars right.

Not really... it just kinda slides back against the lower fairing stay. Never kinks up or anything. Try turning the bars full LEFT and in the opening on the right side fairing, pull the clutch cable tight where it goes through that ziptie that holds it to the frame. That'll take any unecessary slack out of it so there's less to bunch up when you turn right

I guess being tall has it's advantages. The only time the clutch cable gets in my way is when i want to see my odometer. And that's pretty infrequently, and reaching down to move it takes all of two seconds. Cool piece, though.

You guys have gauges! Pff...I was so annoyed with that cable issue that I took out my gauge cluster all together. No more issue for me.

Heeh,my F4i is astreetfighter now with no cluster to worry about. Does that guide that your using make your cable seem tight when turinig against either side stops (pinch the line when turned to the max)?

I took my air box resonator off and used the piece that hold that to the fairing to tie mine out of the way. Honda made a 2 pieces and put them on the bike and couldnt make a 3rd to hold that cable.

yeah it makes the cable tighter, and now im pissed b/c i adjusted my clutch thinking THAT was the problem. but as soon as my hand twisted the little adjuster i realized it was probably b/c the hook i put on the night before. so now im very annoyed and cant find EXACTLY where i had the clutch adjusted at. doesnt sound like a big deal, but its the equivalent of someone getting in you're car (power seats) and moving the seat around, you cant seem to EVER find that "sweet spot" again.
