Throttle Cable Question for Ape Install

Gents, got a question.

Working on building my 2016 Road King, and I’m going to Run 16” Carlini Gangster.

Ive read and read posts about the Throttle extension and there is a lot of scattered information.

I order the 15-17 Cable kit from Magnum Shielding and I don’t see a Throttle Cable extension in the pics on their page (could be wrong) and I can’t call and ask them cause they are closed for the holiday.

Does Harley make a cable for the throttle for taller bars or a company like Namz? I’ve seen the “Kit” Namz has and it includes Canbus also but don’t know what all it includes cause all I will need is the Throttle cable. Just don’t wanna get ready to install my Apes and have to wait cause I didn’t order a Throttle cable or extension.

Any help would be appreciated and maybe a P/N or two.

Thanks and for all that have Served...

WE SALUTE YOU!

16 should be throttle by wire, no cable. If the kit has wire extensions it should be in that.

Roger that, that’s what I was looking for. Hope the Kit has a TBW extension.

Thanks

Yeah it’s TBW, hoping the Kit has a Throttle extension.

I recently used this same kit. TBW extensions were included.

But the TBW wiring is a mile long to begin with. I wouldn’t be surprised if you didn’t need it.
