I think I know where you are going with this. The slim in the other thread used stock cables on his bars and you want to know if you can too? If that is the case, your stock bars vs his shouldn't matter. According to Harley, the stock cables are the same on both bikes. As long as you use the same height and width bars and risers as he has, then it should work.
According to Magnum Shielding, your stock cables are 64 11/16" for clutch, 30 3/4" for throttle and idle, and 44" for Brake. Those numbers are only slightly shorter than the ones I gave you in the other thread, so they might work. Could end up a little tight when turned though, so be careful.
Thanks, guys. I appreciate it.
24V, that is exactly what I was asking.
I was going to buy all the cables and stuff but if that guy with the Slim got away with it, I sure dont want to spend the money.
Judging by the pics of his bike, it doesn't look as if there is any strain on his cables. https://www.hdforums.com/forum/12693841-post1785.html
This will save me alot of money in labor from not having to bleed the brakes and such.
I'm in Korea and not at home so I dont have the tools or a place to do it on my own.
I hope it gets here quick. I'm so ready to get all this crap done.
I'm still waiting on my new seats so I can get my new rear fender fitted and painted.
Then install the bars which is going to require me to cut a few inches off my bullet fairing which is fine because I think it goes back too far anyway.
wait wait wait.

nice, its gonna look good! please let me know if the stock ones work because i've been planing on getting the same bars (just been debating between 10 or 12 height, and 1.25" or 1.5" thick). if the stock lines work with the 10's i will probably just go with them.
