That's my problem! The cable kits are $300 and the bars are only $200. I know if you're gonna play you gotta pay but dang!!

I'm looking at a set of 8" road 6 apes with 1.5" risers on my '11 wide glide, guess the stock cables should be fine?

I did 12" Wild One Chubby Apes and went with cables from Jireh Cycles:
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
I later switched the throttle and idle to 34.5". Fit much better.
Part number for the 34.5" is: 48-754 and 48-755.
Unless you are getting braided cables, you should not be spending more than $100.

another place to look
I think you should look at a seller called hcccycles on eBay. they have bars and cables as a kit. but they also sell cable kits, just have to tell them what bike and what size bars your are going with. I am going to go through them for cables to put 12" street bob bars on the Low Rider.
