you can measure yourself how long your stock cables are (if you don't feel like doing a quick search on the internet).
how do you measure?? Just take an extension chord and run it from your front brake lever to your front brake caliper, from the clutch lever to where it goes into the transmission cover and do the same with the throttle cables. It's very simple. Just run the extension chord parallel to the cables currently on the bike.
but the stock measurements should be on the internet somewhere man.
post up what kinda bike you have and someone will come through for you.

magnum shielding is where I purchased the cables for the bar swap i just did on my Rocker. their product is excellent and if I remember their website should have all the stock cable measurements on there.

Here is a set of Todds 13" Strip Bars mocked up on my Springer project. I've got them leaned way too forward, but you get the idea ... great bars !!
Tight fit but appears I may be able to use the stock cables.
