For the ones with the 12" Yaffe MBB's... did you have to install extended brake lines or use stock?
I have the bars for a 2013 Limited, but was sent wrong brake cable and wondering if o can get by with stock!
Thanks!

My factory lines fit, my buddies 2015 factory lines fit. I can not say if yours will or not.
I'm 5'8" & can barely use the mirrors, however I feel there are blind spots even with the mirrors so I was going to look anyways.

You guys with the 12" MBBs installed, if you measure from the end of one grip, to the end of the other, how wide are they? My KSTs are 40"; I want a narrower setup, and the MBBs look narrower to me.

Your bike is looks great. I installed the same bars on my 14' SGS last summer. I was able to retain the fairing mirrors without an issue and I'm 6'0". I think its a torso length dependent thing though.. Enjoy the bars.

Onedef1, I put the 12" Yaffe's on my 2013 Street Glide a couple of years ago. They are narrower than most others. I didn't like the real wide ones either. Mine are extremely comfortable and I still use the stock mirrors. I'm 6 foot tall and I can't see out of the top 10% or so while in the normal riding position. But a slight lowering of the head and I can see all of it no problem. I don't care for bar mounted mirrors.

'14-up doesn't need new cables, the stocks will work fine up to 14" apes. They just need to be rerouted. I put on 14" KST Mayhems on first, then went down to 12" ones. I do a lot of course riding. I love the bats but I'd like em just a little bit turned inward, or a narrower spread.
