Cables for Night train

Needing some help with cable lengths for a night train that I'm putting street slammers on. Guessing some members have done this so looking for some insight. Saw some other posts on what cables are recommended but I don't know what length I need to order, I guess if I contact the vendors they should know but thought I would check here. Thanks!

You can use stock length cables on the Slammers.

Great, glad to hear that. Guess the dealership was just trying to sell me more when they said I would need to get the cables too. Thanks

Yeah, they always recommend new cables. They must make a huge profit on them. I swapped from mini-apes to slammers when I got my FXST and bought a used set of stock NT cables and they fit perfect. Good luck with the swap.

Yeah they burned me for that before I knew any better but I'm over it now. They gave me a great deal on the black braided one's I have now and I love the looks of them.
