Hi all just put some apes on my sons sportster and I'm having trouble installing the throttle cables I'm going to be ordering my third set due to the other cables not having enough slack to connect to the carb is this because I'm buying crap throttles or am I doing. Something wrong

This is software issues. Yes great first post and issue but copy and paste it here.

Probably here. Not sure what Sporty you are referring to.

PS. Only as a suggestion.make your next new post in the Welcome area..

And for sure. Welcome .

Hope you continue to enjoy your ride here with us on the HDFORUM.

Only as a suggestion, but very important, create a signature line similar to mine on your bike with the year, model, and all the letters Harley assigned to the bike. It will appear at the bottom of your post.

You can also add a favorite picture to the signature line.

Doing this will be helpful if you ask a question or to someone asking a question. All Harleys aren't the same with many changes and variations over the years.

You can also add a favorite picture for an Aviator postage stamp you see at the top left of your post.
