Quick Sanity Check

This is my first time doing this so I wanted to run the numbers I came up with by this forum and see if everything seems like it is in the ballpark. I have a 2007 FLHRS and am putting on Carlini 16" Flyin apes. The measurements I came up with are +11 inches over stock on the clutch, +11 on the throttle and +11 on the idle for my cable lengths. Does this pass the snicker test..? For the wires I just ordered a wire extension kit from JP and will just solder them to the length I need.

Thanks

I put 16's on my 02 heritage and went +10 and had plenty of length. putting on apes is the best mod to do

RE: Quick Sanity Check

One more quick question before I pull the trigger on the cables - I have decided to add cruise control while I am doing this job, do I have to order anything special with the idle/throttle cables for cruise - I am a little confused on this having seen posts on idle cables that havea rolloff adjust. switch in them - I dont even know what that is for - is that in all idle cables..? I plan to order my cables today so any clarification of that before hand would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

You will need to order your cables with the roll off... All cables are not the same. They should ask when you order, if not be sure to specify.

RE: Quick Sanity Check

Thanks - I am glad I asked. Out of curiosity - what does the rolloff switch do - how does it work..?

RE: Quick Sanity Check

+11? I thought I told you +15

These bars are sweet looking. I'm a bit jealous so I can't wait for him to post the pic and does his pictorial of the whole event. Look for the thread titled "Two Noobs and their Wrench"
