No more than +8. +6 sounds closer to the actual.

Me and my son are installing a set of santee bonanza II 13" bars on his 2007 FXD, we used 48" brake line, 60" throttle cables, and +8 clutch cable. Since you are 3" taller then the bars we are installing these measurements should work. 50" brake line, 62" throttle cables, +8 clutch cable. Most important ask the shop if you can exchange cables if you have to, we had to exchange 2. Had to add this update the plus 8" clutch cable on the 13" is a little to long after we rerouted the cable to the inside of the bars, the rest of the cables are fine. Good luck.
