Flat bars (2016)

I run 29 1/5"" flat m shape bars, had to swap pressure switch to out side port, just hitting fork leg, had to weld a piece of steel to steering stop to stop switch gear hitting interstate tank.
The biggest change for comfort I made was a stepped Hyde seat, flat bars, rearset pegs and a humped seat and you are no longer trying to grip the seat with your legs so your thighs are not burning after a couple of hour's

I test fit the Flanders 31" flat bar this weekend, and I really like the set up. Very comfortable for me. However, it fouls my Interstate tank, which I wasnt really thinking about. That is no big deal, as I have my hirider tank fit now, and have just bought a Lyta style tank I will be fitting, so will likely do the full swap if it clears that one OK. I can always go to the UK bar if I want to use the Interstate tank, but here in NZ that is not such a big deal as it was in the US.

Is anyone with experience of flat bars on a Commando able to tell me if I will be able to use the master cylinder on flat bars 29" long?
I know that Vincent flats are too short, I believe 27"

Many thanks in anticipation.

Just stuck on 27" atlas flat bars (03-0408) on with a brembo master and roadster tank...no interference but a tight fit with no tank clash...sweet !!
