Default 12in ape bars

Thinking of putting !2 in ape bars on the 2019 low rider, my question is there a kit for the cables and wiring as I really dont want dealer to do it as they want to charge me 900.00 bucks, if there is a DIY wire/cable kid it centrally would make for a more simple job.

any suggestions I would be thankful for.

Phil

I got my wires from Guerrilla Cables, they make good stuff and have a few lengths. I got the 6" wire extensions from them. For the cables HD has them in increments, I did not change either since my bars are very narrow and I went a little shorter than you plan. Anyway, as I was thinking of going taller before my set up now I looked into the cables as well. On the Low Rider the stock cables are 24" brake and around 35" for the clutch. So, for +2 brake is part number 41800678 and clutch is #37200326. For +4 brake is #41800657 and clutch is 37200380. I went 8" riser and 2.5" bar, clutch works fine and brake is a tad bit tight so I may go +2 on that but my bars are only 28" wide. I think you could go +2 on the clutch and +4 on the brake but do some looking into the measurements of your bars before you take my opinion. God luck.

I think $900 for bars, cables, wire extensions and install is a really good price! I definitely paid a bit more for my install of 12in Hell Bent Bars.
