Default 14 in bars on an 07 heritage?

Hello, fast question. Can I put 14 inch bars on my 07 heritage without running new cables and wires? I think stock bars are 12(?) So if that's true it would only be 2 more inches.

Thanks

Ya. I’m thinking you’ll need longer cables. On the Freewheeler. (Same set up) I needed all new for 14s.

I believe you will need new cables. Assuming the document in the link is correct, jumping from 7" oem to 14" aftermarket is a tall order.

I used Hillside Customs and ordered my 16's "plug & play" and couldn't be happier with them.
