If you put on the 12 then please buy some new riser bushings. I did not and had to go back and put them in. Inner fairing almost taken off again.Better to do it the first time.Helps alot with the handle bars swaying.

I used the kit HD sells for their 12 inch bars. I also used the diamond back braided cables so those are a different color than what u want

I have 12s. I went with Magnum Sterling Chromite. They have black. +8 on the clutch (probably could have gone +6) and +6 on brake. Make sure you get the upper and mid line for the brake.
With 10s I think you'll be fine with the stock brake length. I would extend the clutch 2" so it doesn't bind and you don't have to reroute the cable. You don't need wiring extensions for either. The 12s you just have move the plugs under the radio.

For those that have ABS as I do, for the 12" Bars, do I still use +6 or +4 on the brake like length?
I'll prob stick with +8 on the clutch. Going with Magnum Shielding Black Pearl unless I find a better steal somewhere else.
Thanks!
