Default Will stock cables be ok for these bars...

Just got a pair of RSD Vintage Short Stack bars for my slim.

Didn't measure the cables but anybody know if the stock cables and wires will be enough for these....here are the specs for the bars...

30" Wide x 7 1/2" Rise x 6 1/2" Center Width x 3 3/4" Pullback

Thanks

I would be very surprised if the stock cables and wiring fit with those bars...

I have used stock cables with 10" strip bars on a couple of Softails, only had to change the brake line. The stock bars are 2" wider and have a lot more pullback than those RSD bars. If the cables on your Slim are the same as a '13 model they are a mile too long for the stock bars. Mock it up...Bet you will be ok
