Default Need help with suicide shift clutch cable

Can anyone who has a jockey shift foot clutch cable help me out with how long I need my clutch cable to be? I know they have kits but I'd rather do it myself. I have a place where I could get it made I just need the length. I'm planning on fabbing up my own shifter. Any help is appreciated. By the way it's a 09 iron I'm running.

The clutch cable on my bike is 12" long from its attachment point on the clutch pedal to where it enters the primary.
