What length cables do I get?
Installing 16" apes on my 09 Road King Classic. Dealer quoted me $347.13 for parts and $660 for labor($88/hr). That being said, I am shopping for better quotes. got one today for $262 parts, $445 labor. So what length cables to I purchase prior to taking my bike in the shop?
Here are the part #'s, but I can not find the length
38926-09 Clutch cable
44461-08 30" Upper brake line(guess that length never changes)
44907-08 Lower brake line

Call Dr Vtwin.
I'd go +8" on everything and use Magnum Sterling cables and brake lines and Namz makes your wire extension kit +8 as well.
IMHO a fair charge on labor would be around 4-5 hours. They'll also be a host of knick knack charges and costs for gaskets, seals, shop supplies, etc.
Figure ~ $800 or so when all is said and done using quality components.

Clutc cable is plus 6 and brake is plus 8 which is a little long for my bike so plus 8 maybe plus 9 on upper brake line should be good
