Default Chubbys WO513+FLHRC, Need Cable change?

Sorry i am quite lost.

Some says the cables need to be lengthened, and some says it is not necessary.

Can anyone with experience enlighten me a little?

FLHRCI has roll-off switch on idle cable, which will make the cruise control unit sensitive if the cable is "stretched" during turning.

Help...thanks...[8D]

I had to extended my cables. I used a kit from Novello, it comes in different lenght extensions, heat sink and the wires are colored to match factory wire.

Can't go wrong there...

My 2 cents

Thanks for replying.
I believe youare talking about Novello wire extension kit w cruise. Which set did you get? +4" or+8", Is there a +2"?

Iam actually more concern about the throttle/idle cables. It has a roll-off switch that costalmost as much as the bar.

Am pretty certain the clutch cable will fit as mine still have some slack on my high bar.
