12" Monkey Bars on order with cable and wire kit. Can anyone tell me if the cables/wires actually need to be extended?

How difficult is the cable change? Planning to do this myself.

This will be on my list to do soon. Thanks for sharing the pics! Looks like 10's for me, but trying to decide on chrome or black now.

The dealer put my bars on & said there was 1 wire that they needed & that it was $30, after they installed the bars I offered to pay the $30 & they told me not to worry about it. So I don't know if they put it on & are just ok with it since I spent so much $ or if they actually didn't need it.

Thanks!


Their nice bars...I would think the monkey bars might measure differently than the Bagger bars...I ended up going with 14" 1.5 bars from factory 47. The "Assault" bars I bought have a slight bend to them for Fairing clearances, but they do offer bars similar to the PY Monkey bars...Think it's their "Malo" bars.

My 14" bars are actually 13" according to the measurements, so the 12" they offer would be 11". Might be a good fit, check out their site, and can't beat the look of a 1.5 inch bar!
