Are you planning on putting those signals on the front? If so you might not like to do that. The stock front signals have a 2 element bulb. That gives you running lights and signals. The new ones may provide for signals only. That may not be legal in some areas of the world. They would however be satisfactory as rear signals.
Keep in mind the flasher may not work as well if at all if the new lights do not draw the required amount of electricity to make it function. If the new signal lights are LED's then the power draw will be minimal and likely will cause the flasher to flash quickly and for a shorter period of flash time making it harder for others to notice the signal. You could however install an electronic flasher that is not dependant on the amount of power draw.
Alantf can tell you which wires to hook a new electronic flasher to control the signals. They are relatively cheap and available at most auto stores.
As for the added length of controls with lower bars don't worry too much. Just take up the extra slack at various points of the bike to spread it out. Make sure everything is secure and not in a position to catch on something accidently.
