Default Ape hangar cable help!

I'm in the process of putting 17" Santee apes on a 2010 FLSTN. I'm removing the stock risers and going back with 1" to 2" risers. Can anyone tell me what length cables I need to get?
Thanks,
KGB

I just put 16" apes on mine and used Sterling II Chromite from Magnum Shielding. I used the following lengths:

52" Brake Line, you may want to go 54" (mine was barely long enough)
39-40" Throttle/Idle Cables
74" Clutch Cable

The brake line is the only one I was close on, the other fit great and would work for 17" apes, unless they are funky shaped or something.

WARG s right on spot. Maybe add an inch or two to the brake line for simplicity sake. I can get you some magnum's if you like.
