I purchsed a pair of Chubby's Road King handle bars. They are recommending a 4+ inches on the throttle, idle and brake cable. What cables should I purchase and what length? I know the HD ones but seem expensive. Any advice.
Well, if they are recomending +4 then that's what I'd go for. They're the ones who know for sure what + lengths you need.
Also, you haven't mentioned for what bike.
I looked into price when I did mine and I found that with the 20% online discount at Zanotti's or Chicago HD, they're the same price as the aftermarket ones I saw. Can't remember name of them though.
