Doesn't that depend on what your stock set up is? i.e Train cables etc will surely be shorter than those ona Softy custom?

RE: handlebar question
My Softail Custom came with 10" mini apes. I put a set of Wild 1 Chubbys 12.5" apes on and only changed the brake line. The other cables are stock. The cables don't have a whole lot of slack in them, but they're are still safe to use. I like not having a lot of slack in the cables. I think it gives a cleaner look to the front end.
