Those zx12 thingys are to crazy for me I`m more of a vespa sorta guy but I really think you should slap on a set of those highway pegs. They make harleys cool and if something can do that they must be magical! :D

Hey Gos, I went away to see the world!! Ended up stopping at Woodridge and dating a long term hooker,You know the woman that stays with you just long enough to take 3/4 of everything you have.
Anyway new woman(wife) now and trying to save for a new 12 :D

Thought you would be on the Ulysses forum by now, know I'm not far from it!

Hey guys. With the heli bars would I need to order new brake lines ? I'm thinking of buying a set of heli bars and do the brake lines at the same time but I'm not sure if I can get away with standard length lines.

Helibars say you can use stock lines with the 04-05-06 models. My brother's 06 was using stock brake lines with Helibars, no issues. But hes since upgraded to HEL lines with ZX14 calipers (as have I!)

You will need a longer clutch cable. Helibar can supply this one.

Have done about 4 different styles of handlebars on the Barge - 05 ZX12R. Flat bars, normal clubman style, both on 1" risers from the stock top clamp - as well as home-made helibars.

None of these required a longer clutch cable, throttle cable or brake lines. There is a radial master-cylinder fitted with Hel lines, they were stock length for the OEM m/c but are long enough (just) for all the different combos of handlebars I have used.

Helibars actually supply the clutch cable with their kit, without needing to request it....

They didn't with mine, just used all the original stuff and fitted fine.

Ok.. I'm guessing you ended up with the Version 1 kit. The Version 2 kit definitely comes with a clutch cable :)
Theres info on kawasakiworld about them somewhere!
