Default 2017 street Bob

I was on here reading around about bars sizes with stock cables, I bought burly arrow 12" apes and someone said they put 14" of the same bar on with stock cables. I'm not to sure how but my cables were tight with 12s idk if maybe they rerouted things but i bought 12s to work but looks like I'm going to have to get cables. Can someone help me on this please and thank you

Quite simply different brands of bars can also be different shapes, so that the precise length of cables and brake lines etc cannot be reliably predicted, unless you buy a complete kit from the same manufacturer. It is tempting to do everything before breakfast, but for the optimum end result it is best to install your bars, then measure up for cables, lines, wiring etc.
