Default Stock Wires with 12.5" Chubby's ?

Do I need any new wires? Or can I use all the stock wires?

To put 12.5" wild one's Chubby's on my 07 street bob?

I just dropped off the bars/grips/levers at the shop, and gonna drop my bike off now...
if more wires how much? like 100?

yeah I'm paying....

It's already at the shop, I told him other people have done it with the stock cables.
He said he will try the stock cables, but he will let me know.

4+ hours he quoted for the job ! ouch....

But I get it for this weekend...

I did this same job with 16's last week in about 3hrs. You could be saving yourself a nice chunk of labor by doing it yourself. Your stock bars are the miniapes, 10"?

Oh well, I think the bars was too big a job for me, I'm very poor mechanically.
while it was there gettn an oil change (only 25 buk), and getting my 11" progressives
installed (half hour)...

So I'll have a nice ride for this weekend.

I have 12.5" Wild One Chubbies on an '07 Street Bob. The stock wiring was long enough, but I replaced the cables to give me a little more play. I would go about +4 because of both the increase in height and the increase in width.
