Mini??? APES INSTALLED!
Got em on, and it says 9" apes, but I think they are at least 10! Oh well, I really like how it turned out though! Couple of problems, 1 - clutch cable is way too tight soooo....what do I do now? Is this something I can do myself, how much should a cable cost, and how do I do it?? Two, front brake cable wouldn't even reach, check the pic. Can I get a new connector with longer pieces for my dual disks somewhere or how do I go about that?? Whole new setup there? Please say no - this was supposed to be cheap! Rode around the neighborhood with (using back brakes) to feel em and theyre super comfy! Thanks!
And yes - mirrors will be lower now and black and turn signals are going to the forks.
The brake is basically a T under the tree that forks off two ways down to each caliper - from there up hard line - to small soft line - to hard line that hits the master cylinder....can I add to that anyhow??

I ordered new handlebars, throttle cables, and a brake line for a FXDWG with the aftermarket wire extender kit from the dealer when I bought my '01 SG. They were not going to be able to get the brake line for a few weeks so I cancelled the order and got a NOS one for an '02 FXDWG off of eBay for $25 shipped...

The clutch cable will be easy, just loosen up the adjuster nut until you have about a 1/16 to 1/8" of play in your clutch lever. All you have to do is pull down the rubber piece that is in the middle of your clutch cable attached to the front of the frame. Then adjust the nut to get you correct setting. Without better pics not sure what your working with on your brake line. If you want feel free to pm me your number maybe can help ya out on the phone.

Ok got the clutch figured out. I just took it out of the plastic clip (2 on frame rail behind forks and 1 below motor on left side) on the left side below the motor and that completely took the stress off of it. This should be fine right? Doesn't seem like it'll move much or get into anything by removing that, right? Brakes are another story - these dual disks are killing me.....ideas?
By the way....how do they look?!

you can get extended brake lines through dennis kirk or parts unlimited for the dual disc set up on your bike. I have the stock six inch riser on my bike with 14 inch bars and purchased a burlys extension kit which was a waste of money. Harley has so much extra wire tucked in the frame I didn't need to extend the wiring and the brake line they sent in the kit was for single brakes so the only thing from the kit I used was the extended clutch cable and bought a separate extended dual brake line. but either way love it!!!
