You might be able to use 08 and up clamps. Ask a Harley Dealer parts guy to be sure. Might be able to find cheap at a Harley junkyard or Ebay. I bought Polyurethane bushings from Harley. I think a company called Gooden Tight makes them for Harley if you can find them cheaper that way. Harley should've put Poly's on to begin with as they are better with a longer life span. It becomes more important as you raise the bars.
I went 10 and did +2 clutch. Everything else worked at stock length. Another variable is if cable lengths are the same with new frame. If you can find StreetGlideTroy he is in the middle of this job right now on an 06 and is doing MBB 12's. He should have the exact answers you desire. I've been helping him out so tell'em I referred you.
P.S. Several with the current frame say they have gotten away without any new wires on MBB 12's. If I had to guess though I think pre-09 handlebar wiring are shorter. May have to replace everything.
Right on, thank you for the tips. Ordered bars, clamp & grips. Gonna research clutch cables & bushings now and stalk StreetGlideTroy to see how his project is coming along.
