Well, it isn't too much of a concern with the seat at the higher setting, but they are up there.

Thoughts about twisting the throttle tube forward and place the cables between the mirror and the handguard? I have heard of some who have flipped it, but then others say it can get caught when venturing off the pavement.

I did option #2 yesterday. Seems to work better than zip-tying the cables to the guide loop.

What diameter and length of tubing/hose did you use for the standoff?

TIA

I rotated mine. First pass I put them all the way under, but I wound up moving them between the mirror and handguard. There is a tab that lines up with a hole in the handlebars, so that will need to be compensated for.
