Not sure how they measure, the throttle/idle are Drag Specialties, Stainless Braid. 39.5" is on the package

from JSS picture, the cables are plenty long enough to handle 18" bars. That brake cable is way long.

I can get you a great price direct from Magnum Shielding if you are interested. I tell them the height of the bars and they usually suggest a certain length, but make them custom to whatever length you need. It usually takes them 2 days to make them and since I work with them so much they will ship directly to you. If you are not happy with the lengths they suggest we can go longer or shorter. Shoot me a PM and I'll get you a quote.
