I am planning to put the 12" Paul Yaffe Monkey Bars on my 2015 SG , and I wonder if is this handlebars need to change the stock cables ? It is written on Paull Yaffe's website that 10" and 12" monkey bars can use the stock cables and no need to get longer cables or extension . Is any one did this setup before? I appreciate your advice .
Thanks
Amr

Per Paul Jaffe shop in person last week, cables are NOT needed for 10" or 12" monkey bars on the 2015 CVO Street Glide. However, most installers assume that because they used to be necessary on older models that they still are so they order cables and install them. NOT necessary, call Jaffe in Phoenix direct to verify.

Thanks, Pamarella! I am debating between 10 and 12" and having to do the cable swap was swaying me towards the 10s.

I hope you're not in any hurry for them. Guys have been posting on the RG forum that it's about a 3 month wait, and that's if they don't lose your order.

Must be on a slow boat from China :coolblue:

Yea I was lucky I got mine relatively quickly in about two weeks. Just received the bagga chips they took three months.

Amr , this is S.Hashash . 12 inch bars work with stock cables , u only need namz 8" kit for wiring
-
10" will work, but your arms will block the mirrors. Not a big deal.

I just did the 10" extended wiring but lines were fine. Looks like 12" would be really tight to me. Others have said it is doable but I would get longer brake and clutch lines if I went 12"

Just had the 10 installed no need to get new lines

One more

So are you guys saying no need to get new brake and clutch lines. But need to extend wiring? Or no need for either with 10" bars?
-
the only thing I had to by was extened wiring.

There are three things to think about. You have the wiring (turn signals / lighting / horn / radio controls / start / stop). The fly by wire throttle (6 additional wires-seperate from the other wiring) and the cables (clutch and Ft. brake).
I went with a 10 rise bar and could stay with the stock wires and cables (almost). For some reason, I could not get enough extra slack for the loom going up the LH bar. I had bought an extension kit just in case, so I ended up using it for that side only. I played around with re routing the loom inside the faring but couldn't find the needed extra length? The Ft. brake cable was tight too, but some creative re routing along the frame backbone found me a couple inches more length.
This was on a 2012 CVO Streetglide. If I had gone to a 12inch rise, I would have needed the extensions all around for sure. I routed all my wires internally like stock (the cables are still external). Make sure the guys saying you don't need extensions for the 12 inchers aren't just running the wires externally.

Same here on my 2010. I installed the 10" Yaffe MBB and bought the 8 in NAMZ extensions but only used the LH side. Didn't extend the TBW, RH wires, clutch nor brake lines.
