My searching isn't going so good in the archives, what size cables would be needed for a 10" rise mini ape handlebars? I looked at J&P-not sure which setups to use.
Clutch, Brake, and throttle.

My buckhorns are 8.5" rise. I also have Jim's Spacers (1" more). Brake line and Barnett clutch cable are 4" over. I moved the stock throttle cables to the right side of the neck and they are fine.

4-5" over on brake/clutch would do you fine and stock length on throttle, properly routed.

Thanks! Do you have part numbers or a web site?

My clutch cable came directly from Barnett. email them and tell them you want to special order the cable or they will point you to a local dealer.

The brake line is just off the shelf parts from a local bike shop. Measure your current line, go to a shop and get the right length line (4-5" over), two new fittings, and some new crush washers.

I re-used the stock throttle cables....
