Burly extension cable kit? Or something else?
I recently bought new RSD 16" apes for my 07 Fxstc & need to get new cables & such. Did some searching & seen some minor problems with Burly brand clutch cables sticking. They seem to of fixed that problem. Anyone else had problems with the Burly kit or should I go with another brand?

I'm getting ready to put on some Burly 1 1/4" beach bars, so I ended up buying the LA chopper cable kit & wire extension kit. Whether they are the best, I don't really know. It was the the only cable kit I could find for the beach bars. There were a few different wire extension kits, LA chopper, Namz, & Novello.

I used a Burly kit with my 14" Outlaw install this summer. The clutch cable was in fact junk (binding internally) but they sent me a new one and havent had any problems with it.

I got aset about a year ago for my sporty and they worked fine, my only complaint is that they only offer black, it would be nice if they offered some chrome lines but for the price it is hard to beat the Burly kits.

If there are known problems with the Burly kit then why take your chances when there are other kits(LA Choppers) for right around the same price.

I wasn't too sure about all the brands. Was thinking of going with Burly til I heard bad things from a year or so ago. But also wanted to hear of other good brands. I was gonna go with regular cheap cables til I checked out the Magnum cables. Didn't know anyone made braided black cables. I try to do some research before buying or before asking questions here. But that's why I come here & try to learn a few things. I'm thinking since I paid good money for my bars, then I should go ahead & step up on the cables too. Man, I need to find other hobbies that don't get so expensive. Ha
