Default Handlebar cables

Hello every one
&nbsp\\;
I am new to the forum and this is my first post
&nbsp\\;
I have just picked up a brand new Road king and up to now love it but only done 40 miles because i had to go to work&nbsp\\;
&nbsp\\;
My question is :
&nbsp\\;
Should the switch cables on the handlebars run through the bars?
Cant see the point of cleaning up the bars with FBW if the cable isnt hidden.
&nbsp\\;
Also any hints or tips for a new road king owner would be welcome.
Thanks in advance
Dave

Welcome to the forum. I hope you will stick around even with the technical problems we are having here.

The TBW, throttle by wire, was not designed to clean up the bars. If you want to do that, buy some Wild One Chubbys. Most RK owners get the 518s.
