+1 on those spacers, you need 'em.

when I work around that area I remove the headlight (2 screws and a connector) since it makes it easier for me to move stuff around.

there are easy (and cheap!) ways of lowering the headlamp and gauges. I ordered these clamps, set them at the height I prefer and bolted the headlight on.
Can you expound a bit on the need for the spacers -I can't picture what they do. I'm planning Tall Boys installed, stock coffins (forever maybe) and stock triple (temporarily at least)

The spacers are needed because the coffin resevour on the master cylinder will contact the clip-on were the bar mounts.

Whelp, rather than spending the $40 on spacers for the coffins, I decided to upgrade my masters to some S4R units courtesy of another forum member here.  This project keeps getting more expensive, but hopefully the result will prove to be worth it.  I've managed to keep costs in line with a mix of ebay and forum purchases.  Still stoked.
