Default 575 wild one chubbys

I put a set of wild one 575 bars on my '08 FLHX and put +4" clutch and new ABS brake lines. I can't imagine using the stock length, but I guess it's possible.

Thanks for all the feed back, It sounds like the stock lines/cables work most of the time. I will attempt to mount the bars with stock lines/cables for the time being and will give my feed back.

Well I said I would give an update, I changed out the bars last night (sorry no pics yet) but I must not have been listening when some you said that the wires get routed inside the bars, not that is was a ball buster to do but I didn't anticipate doing it. Anyway the bars are on now and the bars feel better I just need to adjust them down a little now and like every one said the clutch cable had to be rerouted and the brake line is a stretch.

Thanks every one for your input

I just replaced my stock bars on my 08 SG for a set of Wild 1 575s and used the stock cables. The Clutch cable seems a little tight but the mechanic seems to think it's fine. I hope this doesn't cause any problems...
