I followed this youtube video, and the service manual, to replace stock clutch cable with the 10" cable. How to Remove the Clutch Cable on a Harley Davidson Big Twin by smallengineshop.

Riser is stock. Polyurethane bushings were new and required periodic tightening after installation as they compressed over time . You can see the brake cable on the lower left.

Nacelle after installation. Organized in a way as to not create parts rubbing against each other. Wanted very little movement in the wires as I turned the handlebars back and forth.

Bled the brakes after installing the cables using a Midyvac pump shown here (Harbor Freight). I followed this video: Motorcycle Brake Repair: Replacing, Bleeding fluid by smallengineshop.

Cleaned off the old bars. Note the colored towels covering painted areas, a must needed precaution for me.

On 2010 RK's there is a small metal post where the new brake line connector is supposed to connect to the frame, however, the Drag Specialty brake line doesn't have an indent to fit around the post so there are two options: 1) grind down the post, 2) insert a 3/16" thick spacer between connector and bike. I chose the spacer and it seems to be working good.

you'll need a small set of plier designed to remove small retainer clips like gold one seen in the pic

I chose to stagger-cut existing wires, insert 20" extensions, which allowed me to use the existing molex without taking the old wires out and replacing with the new wires. In the end it was more work on my part, but I was having trouble with the molexes. 23 wires total, 46 soldered connections.
