Default Clutch cable length

I am going to be installing 12” bars on a 2013 street glide. I wanna replace the cable cause the factory one has 41k miles on it and want something that will be longer, it was recommended I go with a plus 6 cable. I found one on J&P that I think will work.

It’s a Barnett Stealth Clutch cable item number is P926007/ sku 10101113 (sorry, don’t know how to post links) I called Barnett to try and order a cable directly but was instructed to install the new bars and then get a measurement with a string and then call them back. Just wondering what you guys have done for clutch cables or if the one I found would work for my needs. Would like to have everything on hand to get it done in a day or two. Not install bars and then have to wait for a new cable to show up.

thanks

Put 12" bars on my EGUC.
Be advised that not all 12" bars are the same, some measure at different points.
BUT, mine were installed with a +6 cable.

Magnum Shielding can help you out. They have a chart for such things. If you can’t find it on the website you can also call them. I don’t work for them, I just use their stuff.

I put 12” KST Six Bends on a Street Glide and with cable rerouting didn’t need extra cable length, but I used all, and I do mean ALL of the available slack.

I quickly decided my old tired shoulders didn’t like that height and opted for 10”, so it became a non issue at that point.

+6” Magnum clutch cable gave me a little extra slack on my 12” LA Chopper twin peak bars.
