Default Complete Cable/Line Kits for Dyna 18 inch apes

I recently purchased some 18 inch midget gimp apes from Nash Motorcycle company. I am currently searching for risers and a complete cable/line kit to install them when they finally come in (it's been 5 weeks today) If you guys have any ideas or come across a company that sells them please let me know. I found Burly Brand but there kits stop at 16" for Dynas. I am trying to do this project on my own and I'm unfamiliar with this type stuff, so I am looking for the easiest way possible without throwing money away at the stealership.

It's to bad you already bought your bars, you could have gotten the bars wired inside the bar from http://www.hillcountrycustomcycles.com/ call them up they will put a cable kit together for you and can hook you up with a riser as well. Call them up, great guys to deal with.

What bike are these going on? You can find a table within the HD website that tells what length the stock cables are. Just figure the difference in rise, and add an inch if needed for width, then order cables individually from Jireh or VTwin or J&P or somewhere else. I was able to order cables from Jireh in '08 for $80 (Clutch, Throttle, Idle, and Brake line). I'll look for the links to the cable tables on HDs website....

They updated the table, and no longer give lengths. If you are working with an FXDB, I can tell you this:
Stock Street bob cables are:
Throttle/Idle 32.5"
Clutch Cable 68.69"
Brake line about 47"

When I installed 12.5" apes with a wider grip set, I went with this setup from Jireh:
49-227 Russell 52" Brake line (comes with washers) $39
48-664 Pro Motion 72" Clutch Cable $19
48-752 Pro Motion 39.5" Throttle Cable $11
48-753 Pro Motion 39.5" Idle Cable $11

I probably could have gone with 34.5" on the throttle/idle cables, part numbers 48-754 and 48-755.

All cables are black and look OEM, except the Russell brake line that is a subdued stainless. It is a really nice brake line, I didn't want to skimp on thatAll cables are black and look OEM, except the Russell brake line that is a subdued stainless.

I also went with a Novelo wiring extension kit, I think 4".

I went from stock 10.5" to a wide 12.5", so you should be able to figure your lengths from there. Good luck!
