I recently purchased a 2018 FLSB Sport Glide. Im a short kind of guy and my reach is short as well. The bars that came on the FLSB are just too low and forward for me. So I had a set of 12" mini apes from from my old Street Bob along with the factory risers and I put them on the FLSB but now all my wires clutch cable and front brake line are too short. I want to move my signals from the factory location down lower but with the faring I am now too sure how to do that one yet. The forks are inverted so it would take a pretty big ring to mount the signals on them but I will figure that out. So, my question is can anybody point me to a good direction as to where to buy a set of 4 to 6 inch extensions for the wiring, clutch cable and upper front brake line? Thanks, Smokey.

Look to Namz for wire extensions. They have a web site and Dennis Kirk sells their stuff. MoCo has wire extensions but they might be longer than you're looking for. I got all these part numbers for MoCo wire extensions, upper brake lines and clutch cables from another thread, maybe it'll help you. FWIW, I put 10" mini apes on my Low Rider. Stock wiring was good but the clutch and brake line barely worked so I thought I'd change 'em. I initially went with the 43" clutch and 27" brake with 170 degree banjo. They're too long so I bit the bullet and re-ordered 40" clutch and 24" brake, I should have them Tuesday. I support my dealer when I can but Surdyke HD is a good online source with about a 20% discount. Usually takes about a week to 10 days for them to deliver.
