I went with the Wild One 12.5" chubbys. Here are the cables I used, and they have enough slack that I think they would work on 14". Also, if you lower your front, you can calc some extra brake line because the forks are more compressed.
I ordered all of this from Jireh Cycles for $80:
49-227 Russell 52" Brake line (comes with washers) $39
48-664 Pro Motion 72" Clutch Cable $19
48-752 Pro Motion 39.5" Throttle Cable $11
48-753 Pro Motion 39.5" Idle Cable $11
These are good quality cables, especially the brake line. Make sure you shield the clutch cable for the first 12" out of the tranny. It lays against the case and it gets hot down there. Try cableorganizer.com for some ideas. I used multiple layers and tied it off with zip ties. Good luck!

I am changing out my bars to wild one chubby outlawz 12 inch height . I did not have to change out cables or brake lines. I have read a few posters here that did this mod with 14 inch bars and the majority of them were able to get all there stock stuff to work so it can be done. I don't know from personal experience how it will do however.

I was able to get 12's on with the stock stuff, but just barely. And it required a bit of creative routing of the wires. 10's were a no brainier. Ain't no way I could stretch the stock stuff to accommodate 14's or 15's.
