Default I'm looking or a Cable Kit

I have a 05 FLSTSCI.
I just purchased a set of 16" apes from JPcycles and I am looking for an appropriate cable kit that wont brake the bank.
Any suggestions.
I was thinking of using Burly Brand but they don't seem to have an exact fit.

Magnum Shielding produces quality cables and has a vast knowledge of proper cable lengths for extended bars. Give them a call.

I went through Magnum also. If you have the bars already, just mock them up on the bike and measure how many inches over the stock size cables you'll need. Don't forget wiring extensions

La Chopper kits contain Barnett cables.

I went with the LA choppers kit also and it is Barnett (braided) cables vs the Burly which is not braided. Great set I would buy them again if needed.

I purchased an expensive braided set recently, but I think you might want to consider a strong, braided cable. I would hate it if one of my wires snapped in two pieces.
