Default Need Help With Cable Length

OK guys, I need some help. What is the Stock Length (in inches) of the Front Brake Cable on a 2002 Fatboy, FLSTFI?

I'm currently in Kuwait, my bike is in the Philippines so I'm unable to take measurements. I need to order extended length cables and the supplier needs stock length measurement.

Appreciate any help.

I'm assuming you mean brake lines and not "cables". At any rate, Harley does not list the actual length of the original equipment on their fitment table, just the part numbers for +length lines, i.e. +2 inches, +4inches, etc.

Out of curiosity, what company is this? You should be able to just tell them what size over is needed. If they don't know this, I'd look elsewhere, particularly since you're in the AOR and won't have the opportunity to actually tell if you got the right stuff until you're back in CONUS.
