Fitment issue with Cycra pro bends

So I recently bought Jimmy button bars, along with the Cycra pro bends. Anyone run this combo? The Cycra guards are not fitting. Anyone got any tips?

This is very common and has come up a bunch of times, do a search you'll get lots of tips.

A quick answer... bend the hand guards until they fit, you cant expect the same hand guards to fit every bar bend without issue.

I went to the hardware store and got longer 8mm x1.25 bolts (50 or 60mm) along with 1" steel spacers to clear my brake reservoir/line interference when I installed the cycra probends.  I also cut off my balls at the recommendation of an experienced offroad rider.  My clutch lever ball interfered with the cycra guards anyhow. The spacers went between the bar mounts and guards to space them forward and away from the brake reservoir and brake line.
