Did you have to replace the cables and the wiring for the new handlebars? I had a nightster before and replaced the handlebars with licks 10" z apes. Luckily the cables fit fine with that. Now I can't decide between Highball 16" Burleigh bars and harley reduced reach bars for my Blackline.

Default Cables

I was just going to ask the same question. How much the cable set goes for in the U.S.?

Default Blackline first ride

Well, I took the bike for its first ride after doctor gave me the O.k. (three weeks after surgery). I can only say one thing, SWEET!!!

I still have to take a long ride before deciding on changing the handlebar. let's see what happens.

I will try to post some pics tomorrow.
