Default 99 softail cable/brake line kits
hello all,

i have a 99 fatboy with stock bars and i have 14" apes that i want to install. i'm trying to find a cable/wires/brake line kit but i can't seem to find one. i've seen some 2000 kits....is it possible to use that? how much different can it be?

Stock length will work with 14" apes and 1" risers.
At least it did on my Heritage but I hated the 14"apes.
I tried 16" apes next and they were so much better.
