Default HD Stock Cable/line lengths
Does anyone know where I can get information on my stock length cables/brake lines on a 2012 Sportster 72? Trying to replace them and aftermarket dealers have no clue to lengths I need. Does HD publish these somewhere as I cannot find them anywhere in my shop manual........thanks,

I can't confirm but this supplier provides stock lengths, after you enter in bike info.

I think my JP Cycles catalog denotes stock length cables with an * or maybe in bold typeface. Have you contacted your local dealer or service manual?
