Handle bar wire question...

Since I have seen a few new threads on apes, it has me thinking. I have twelve inch bars on my bike right now and if I wanted to go up to the fourteen inch bars would I have to change cables?

Just think about the swap.

What bike is it? Street bob? I had a 15 street bob that I put 16s on and only added +2 clutch and throttle cable. There was more than enough wiring. You could probably get away 18s without extending the stock wires.
