Fatboy - Beachbars
I was trying to decide to put Apes or Beachbars on my 20007 Fatboy. I think I have decided on beachbars because EVERYONE puts Apes on and I want something different. Can anyone tell me, do I have to change out my stock cables to put the beachbars on my Fatboy? I'd appreciate any help.

I had Wild Ones 504 on my fatboy, used all stock cables , did have to add 4" to the wiring to do internal wiring
Go to the Wild Ones site and look at pictures, the 504, 508 and 518 will all work with stock cables

Here's two shots of my Lo with Burley Bikini Beach Bars. Love them. Very comfortable. I had to get longer cables( so I was told ). Had Indy powder coat and install them.

I went with 36 1/2" beach bars and had to change lines all the way. Then went with the braided lines. You should sit on a bike and get a feel of the wideness of the bars you will get so your ride is comfortable and safe.
