Default Sorry, yet another Pyo 12" monkey bars question

Wanted to double check some info, I have a 13 limited was looking to make sure from what I read the stock wiring will work for internal wiring is that correct just need to re route under the radio? Also looking to see of anyone has pictures of the bars installed with measurements so I can double check height. Sounds like a +8 clutch and +6 brake?

I did 10's with these bars +4 clutch and stock brake line. I think +6 clutch and +4 brake line would be plenty.

I'm not trying to hijack your thread buddy but I'm looking to get a set of these bars in black for my 2013 street glide and I am on the fence on size so if anyone has any input let me know .. I like the 10" bars but I'm afraid there gonna be to low and block the mirrors I want them to be level with the windshield n defiantly not taller than the factory windshield

I just didn't wanna start another post on these bars some pics if found 10"s are good and others there low and others 12" are good and others they are to high??

Thanks guys

If ur speaking of stock SG mirrors I've heard can't use then with Yaffe 10's but ok with 12's. You'll be above windshield with 12s though. Btw the Yaffe 10s really measure 11s.

I had originally ran the 10" PYO bars and did not add to the length of the electrical...
It was doable but it was on the taught side ...did not have any problem
now Im running the 12" and FWIW the standard wiring lengths will not work and added to the length...I added 10" oval just so I could put all the connections back to the stock locations...
As far as the cables goes you should be good to go...nothing longer though....If anything you could go +6 on the clutch if for haven't ordered it yet...
Do plan on lengthening the electrical...

Spend the extra money on these....No cutting or splicing involved....

I went with the 12" extensions and they were perfect for 12" bars.....

Ok I don't mind doing the extensions just seems like there is a million threads and all say different things, anyone have picture of the bars on and using a tape measure to show how they actually fit I hear they run big

I think I got my 12" monkey bars from Eastern Performance as a package with the extensions and cables. Can't remember what length, but the clutch and brake were both longer. Clutch long enough to route as the stock one was and I have ABS so it was simple to rout the new line from the reservoir back to the ABS module.
