With my 2" risers the throttle cables are tight at full lock. Anyone remove the rectangular wire guide that the cables run through?

Guess I can just cut it off.....

Anybody remove theirs?

I am using 2" Rox Risers and only had issues with the throttle cables hitting the brake reservoir at full lock. I ended up flipping the throttle upside down.

Yep, I removed mine. You will need to use a large wire tie and keep the cables from catching on the front of the steering head. When you look at it you will see what I mean. Works great.. I also ran the wire loom on the right side different.

Looks good! Did you also drill a hole for the locating pin when you flipped it upside down?
