+12 throttle cables, clutch cable and front brake will do perfectly, i just put +13s on mine and could have went an inch shorter. now go order them, I highly recomend Dr. V-twin, you will not be disapointed.

get a wire that holds shape and measure, +12 sounds good,but do you want a nice curve in your lines go a little extra.
