I measured the original cables:
Throttle = 35"
Brake = 57"
Clutch = 54"

The new cables are
+5"
+4-5"
+8" (this one is too long, I think it should have been +4 or so)

I lined up the old ones next to the new as close as it could and there's no way the old ones would have fit.
Maybe your bike has more slack then you might get by...

Good luck.

These bars are so much more comfortable, it's a huge difference. Before after just a 2 hour ride I was exhausted. I rode for about two hours and got back and felt like I was ready to go again. Control of the bike is easier with these. Too bad the stock bars weren't like this because I still think they look better on the bike. Here's an updated picture with all the other stuff put back on.



A guy on a larger Harley asked me if my bike was a wide glide, huh - told him it was a Sportster.
