    Fellas, does anyone know the cable lengths i need to change to 16" apes on my street bob. They will be internally wired as well if that makes a difference.

    Cheers

    Clutch is 1800mm, 70 -71" (length of braid)

    Brake is 1270mm, 50" (master cylinder to caliper, length includes fittings)

    Throttle cables are 1270mm, 50" (didnt take tanks off but thats pretty close, from throttle housing to top of carb)

    This is to suit 17" bars and an 87 FXSTC Evo motor, I dont think there would be much difference with a later bike, other than the front brake length if front end is a fattie/heritage (may need to be shorter, not sure)
