Default Cables size needed for 12" monkey bars
I have a 2007 flht and was wondering what size cables worked for you.
Brake, clutch, throttle/idle, and wire extensions.

Did you all replace the bushings and handle bar clamps too?

Thanks for your time....

That is for brake and clutch? What about the throttle/idle? How do you like the bars?

The bars are fine, got it almost buttoned up ,and found out that they "forgot" to ship the idle cable, so I am waiting on that.
The guys are a royal pain in the *** to get on the phone I can tell you that.
I talked to one of the guys 2 weeks after I ordered to find out what the hold up was they told me that they were waiting on an idle cable, funny that it wasn't shipped with the rest of the stuff.
