Default Clutch Cable Conundrum

Calling all BOB owners...

For all you guy's who have already changed to taller apes...what size clutch cable did you buy and did you have to have it custom made? I'm going with the 14" Gimps, but want to have enough length if I deside to go to 16's. The guy at this local shop I go to is telling me that he can't buy a black clutch cable for the streetbob with a +4 or +6 OS and that I have to pay for a custom made one and it's gonna cost me $56 bucks to start plus $8 bucks to get it made plus $??? for shipping. So it's gonna be somewhere in the hood of $70. Does that sound right or is he trying to get friendly with my anus??
