Seems there's always a few threads up on bar changes, cables, brake lines, etc ... I thought it might be a good idea if we all post here with the info we have on our set-ups. At your conveience ... post the bars you've installed and all others parts, part #'s, and mods that were needed to get the job done. Maybe we can all save each other some time better spent wrenching and riding.

Note: Street Slammer Bars will fit with existing cables on FXDIs the HD book says NA due to the gauge mounting - mount the gauges some other way, and your FXDI cables will be fine.
Oh dam, now I will have some info on another thing I want to do! That is not good, but it is. Just means that the excuse I was telling myself that I do not know what to get is out the window!! Keep em coming!! To cool
any suggestions what I can do to my Streetbob? I would like to have about 3 more inches over the factory ape hangers. Anyone can reccomend what I can buy and what I will need?
Yep. Pick up the Wild One Chubby 12.5 Apes. It'll get you 2.5 higher and a bit wider as well. You'll need new cables and lines. I extended my harness, although some say you can dig more out of the frame tube. I didn't see enough slack. When I'm finished with the install (long story), I'll be as specific as possible. In the meantime, check out these two links for internal wiring and a complete ape install (w/pics) on a Road King:
