Default Handlebar change

I want to change my 06 heritage from the stock bars to beach bars or bikini bars with 3.5 inch pull back risers. Will I have to change any of the cables or brake lins to do this? Has anyone done this to there Heritage? Lets see some pics if you have done this. Thanks

Just had an indy change my bars from '06 Fatboy bars to stock '07 Heritage bars which raised the grips up a little over 2" - no cable changes.&nbsp\\; Try asking the dealer to give you the cable numbers that are listed for the bars you are looking for and see how different they are from your stock cables.&nbsp\\; I will say that with my new bars another inch in any direction and new cables would have been required.
