I use them on my '14 speedster with a stuck hood. Don't need them but I like the look!

I am just wondering how long they are. I have a speedster and like this look, but not sure how long this is and if it will hit the steering column. Need to reconfigure the seat height and distance. Etc. Etc.

Why don't you just contact the maker?

The width of the top tank on the radiator is known,. It is simply a matter of scaling up that measurement against the photograph.

Hope this helps.

Considering that cold rolled steel generally come in 48" x 96" sheets & sheet metal brakes over 48" are rather costly. With the wired edge @ the
rear. the folded edge @ the front & compound angles to get a slight slope to the hood it would be impractical to make it more than 46". On my speedster with the steering column not quite as low as the one in the picture 43 1/2" would be the longest it could be. That is a neat idea, think
of how easy it would be to work on dash wiring with no cowl in the way :D
