sorry I thought you were talking about baby apes. You are asking about U bars with a 12"-14" rise.

Having all different size apes on my 96 fatboy and I know I had to replace my stock cables when I went to 12" baby apes so I would imagine with that amount of rise you will have to replace your cables. You could always measure them up yourself.
