It is infinitely adjustable, and there are some adjustments where the wire would need to be extended.

But for most, there is plenty of extra wire under the tank that can be re-routed. There is also usually extra wire in the headlight bucket itself that can be pulled out to give more reach.

I installed mine, made ahuge difference in the look. But I did have to extend my wires, and I used the short brackets.

I just edited my above post-

That is unusual that you had to do that. Between the extra wire under the tank and in the bucket, you should not have had to do that. But I have seen HD not be really consistent in their wire lengths at times.
