Default 10" Holey Roller handlebars

I'm thinking about picking up a set of 10" holey roller handlebars from road 6 customs (they are having a sale). My question is do I need a new brake line? I have an 08 nightster. Also does anyone have pics of the 10" ones on their sporty? I've found pics of the 14" and up, but not the 10. Thanks!

Yep you gotta replace the bake line. A 43"-45" line will do it. Go for a 60 degree lower banjo (caliper) and a 30 or 60 upper.

I just bought the 10" bars from R6C. Unreal that they're only $99!

I'll be replacing my brake line ad extending the wiring to get everything internally wired. I'm absolutely dreading the install but every place around here wants at least 3-4 hours labor

New to HD forums. I found your thread and wanted to know how are you doing with your 10" R6C bars.
Want to buy them and need to know if you had to change cables.

The only thing that requires changing is the front brake line,you can bend it to make it work but it looks like crap.You can change it for $60.The bars are great for the price.

I've just ordered 10" r6c Frisco bars for my 2011 iron not looking forward to the install either but I just hope I can use the std cables and get a new break line and wires. That's what I've seen folks do on here. Does anyone know what length wiring kit I would need with no tank lift.
