I also removed the cable tie this morning and there were NO leaks from any of the joints.
Don't forget to use new copper crush washers.

Looking very good and post saved for my decisions on riding position once I can get out more with the wife. Just a thought at 4 years or so, we have the same year bike, the brake master cylinder cap rubber will have lost the ability to seal properly. I bled my brakes last autumn and thought it was all dry until I took the bike off the centre stand and a drop of brake fluid landed on the fairing. It seems the brake fluid finds its way out and almost invisibly runs between the master reservoir and underneath via that little channel next to the bars. I only found it with a torch. Bought a new rubber gasket and all good. Thought I would mention it just in case. The dealer told me they all tend to go around that age if disturbed.

Thanks for that info Mac
I will keep an eye on it.

I must admit I do like these bars and I am tempted to do the conversion myself

My worry is the view out of the mirrors!

I don't want to go down the route of additional mirrors

I did not use the oem mirrors once today when i was out.
I'm going to cover them up with some vinyl wrap.
So if you dont want mirrors on the bars, dont do the swap.

ps. i dont know if not having the bar risers would make using the oem mirrors better.
But i wanted the handlebars raised.
