It is not really that hard...Just tedious. I bought my whole package from hill county custom cycles out of Texas for 369.00. Apes, wiring extension, and all braided cables. They knew exactly what I needed by the make and model of my bike, so I didn't have to do any measuring. Everything fit perfectly. I found some step by step instructionsin the tech forum explaining every step of the process. I printed that out and put it in a folder and it was like having a service manual. It was much easier than I expected it to be.

I just put a post about them in the Gen HD Chat section. Here is their website which has a link to some of their ebay auctions:

Another Member, HDMANNY has been looking in California for a braided cable package to change to apes and he called Robert after I told him about HCCC. Robert's price was almost 150 less than anything he had found in Cali.

What length cables did you end up needing? \\; I'm about to put 16in Wild 1s on my RKC. \\; They say I need +10in for all except the clutch (+8).

Congrates WING on your new bars. \\; I just finished mine (12") yesterday and rode the bike to work today. \\; I absolutely love them as I am sure you will too.
