Default Which bars can I use??

Everyone...does anyone know what aftermarket bars I can purchase for my 2008 Nightster where I can use the stock cables/wiring harness? I was looking at Biltwell bars but they don't mention that I have to change to longer wires/cables. I want to be able to use the stock cables/wiring it came with. Please help!!

What style of bars are you looking at getting? I know Drags can be done with stock cables/wires. As far as bars with rise to them, it depends on how much rise.

I prefer bars that allow smoking.

General consensus seems to be that anything around stock width with 10" or less if rise can still use stock cables/lines for the most part.

You can mount prety much any bar on your bike. It just depends on what style you want. Drag, mini apes, Bike apes, Z bars. Good luck and lets see what you deside on.
