You don't have to extend the wires for 13".Any thing over that,yes.But not 13".You do have to use +6 on all cables and brake lines.Maybe not on a Road King, but you do on a EG or SG.The job is not hard,just time consuming,get a manual and lots of beer and a couple of buds and you'll be fine.Good luck,you want be sorry.
