Default 2000 Ultra 10" Handlebar Upgrade

Helping a friend upgrade his stock bars on his 2000 Ultra. I have done mine on my Rushmore but this 2000 is a different beast. My question is, going to 10", will we need to extend the throttle wires, clutch and brake? I know on the 12's he would have to but how about a 10? I can't find any info on it, being an older model. This bike also has cruise control. Any help would be great, i know its a long shot.

likely something will need extended. I also have an 00 ultra, and there isnt that much slack in everything. if you do need longer throttle and return cables, the sensor for the cruise is in the return cable. Can be a bit of a PITA to find, even in stock lengths. Good Luck
