Extension Harness for Bars
I am looking to do some 12" bars on my 14SG soon and I was wondering if anyone else has used this to extend the wires as needed with new bars. I know I can cut and solder to extend but I want to keep it clean, simple and easy.

If you use the good color coded extensions and use a heat gun to heat shrink the tubing you should not have any issues. Just don't attach your pulling device(string, wire, etc) in the area of the connections when making your pulls.

I just installed 12" Monkey bars, used the 8" NAMZ extensions for the hand controls, no extensions needed for the TBW. I didn't need to cut and solder anything either, it probably took me a little longer and lots more swearing in the garage, but I was able to wire everything up without cutting any wires. Be VERY careful with the TBW connectors, the trick to all this is take your time, I had to just walk away and come back to it a few times, work the wiring back and forth gently.
Before you try installing the bars take a good look at the clutch/brake lines and reroute them to give you enough room to reach, you'll have to cut a bunch of zip ties and possibly loosen the clutch cable up top just enough to reposition it just don't loosen it too much.
Tip: install the lower part of the TBW first, then the right side hand control wiring, once that side is done connect the NAMZ extensions. It worked best to trim off a couple inches of the black plastic wiring cover on the hand control wiring. I used weed eater line and secured it using electrical tape and sprayed windex inside the bars. After you get the hand control wiring in then carefully reconnect the TBW, I had to hold the green connector (lower connector inside the bars) with a pair of needle nose pliers but it can be done if you take your time. The left side was much easier using the same method of removing some of the black wiring cover, this side took all of 30 minutes tops.
I'm glad I did it myself but there won't be a next time for wiring bars like these.

This is how Betty looks after the bars. Very comfortable.
I bought the extender set from Harley for 35 bux. Ran all the wires through my bars. Remember that the 14s are plug and play. Why cut any wires when The MOCO makes a plug and play system? Then if you want to go back to stock you simply unplug and revert it to stock. I did get the 10" bars.
