And to know how to expertly run all that equipment, even better...
I am quitting my job at the end of this year and embarking on a "new quest for happiness and abundance." During the course of that journey, two of the things on my bucket list are to learn the welding and machining trades.

I mounted the bars and used an old extension cord to help me find the cable lengths because I didn't want sloppy cables. The first time I did a bar swap I used a "kit" and the cables were a mile too long, looked like hammered @$$ in my opinion.
If you mount the bars and measure you will get the best result. Check measurments with the bars full left and full right, not just straight forward. That being said....bet +4" clutch and +6" idle/throttle would be a good generic fit but don't quote me haha. I have put a few narrow 10" bars on Softail with stock cables and only changed the brake line.

I did 3 1/2 risers and 8 inch mini apes on my SG, and went with 2 inches over stock on all the cables. just not sure how long the cable are on my lo. I wouldn't do anything over a 12 inch bar and I guess even with a set of 1 inch risers. have a frozen shoulder so my right arm won't go straight up. still up in the air about it. but thanks for the info
