Did you have your extended hoses made locally or buy them online somewhere?

Don makes some nice bars. I had a 12" set on my Nomad. They felt good.

I had some made at Axelboy in St Peters, MO. They were able to recreate the "Y" that was there originally. I never asked RoaringToyz if they would sell the hose kit separately, but they were my Plan B.

I'm assuming you're referring to the Y under the lower tree clamp? If they were custom making the hoses, couldn't they just reuse that one?

Looking good!
I put round 2 1/2 inch LEDs in my bags. and the blinkers went in the vent along with running lights. Question: How much was the Handle Bars and how did you paint the plastic on the engine heads? Thanks Roger ______________________ 2011 Black Vulcan Vaquero.

The engine covers have 2 bolts each to loosen and the part "slides" off. I had them painted with a hydro graphics system. I'm typing on my phone now or I'd put in a link to the shop that did my "carbon fiber" effect. www.midwesthydrodesigns.com

Approximately how much did it cost for the extended hoses? What makes them low profile?

RoaringToyz ran a line straight from the lever to the left caliper, then used a long banjo bolt to stack banjos and run a jumper from left caliper to the right caliper.
I call them low-profile, but they are a smaller hose (<8mm diameter) versus the stock, which I haven't measured but seems about 20mm or so overerall. - I paid about $170 for a new clutch line, and the brake hose/manifold assembly. Stainless steel braided hose with clear dark-smoke color. The combo of dark smoke over SS braid has a "carbon" look I'm using on other parts of the bike.
