Hi,
I am planning to replace stock handlebars(Dragbars) on breakout 2018 model with 10" Ape Hangers ( Carlini Evil Ape 10 Non Stepped Black Throttle By Wire ) using low riser 1" 1/2 . Can anyone advise on the length to go for upper clutch cable ? Thanks
Unless someone comes along and has done the Carlini bars on a Breakout, the best thing you can do is mock up the bars and take a measurement. Then, order the clutch cable.

Thanks for looking into it, like you suggested i will measure by holding the new bars once arrived. I guess 41" cable might do the job without much overhanging.

Funny you asked, as i am doing the research on brake line this very moment. Have you got any ideas !! I've noticed in US you can buy the whole cable kits (Burly, la choppers etc) but most of them for 12-14" bars and not 10". Do you reckon it's best to get the whole cable kit that will inlcude harness as well. Than again i am not sure if the kit will include just the upper clutch cable or the full length clutch cable.

I did the 1.25", 12" bars on mine and went with clutch cable #37200216
Brake line was made by a local shop here called TMR (Torino Motor Racing)
Bike has ABS so the line only goes to the distribution block by the triple tree.
That's looks great, mine's the same bike. Think 10" apes i bought are bit shorter with low risers, so decided not to install it yet. So looking for 14" apes that might suit breakout profile, was looking at 14" from Burleigh Bars, they are 2" fat, not sure yet if they'll look good or be over killed.

Looks good!
Yeah, part #37200216 is the OEM upper cable for the Fat Boy, Street Bob and Softail Standard.
For what its worth, I installed 10" Khrome Werks mini apes on my '18 Fatboy and ended up using a 42” Upper Clutch Cable, HD Part # 37200383 to follow the stock routing.
