Default Z bars on Train Has anybody done this?

I like the look of the low z bars about a 3 inch rise. I was wondering if anyone has attempted this and did they have to change out the cables and wires to a longer set? It looks like on my 2007 Night Train that there is just enough play to keep the stock risers and just bolt on the bars.

Anybody? Suggestions???

I put 4" rise z bars on my FXSTS and didnt have to change anything! the wires are the perfect length and the stock cables are still a little on the long side...
