Just wondering if a set of T-Bars would work.They are 29 wide/8 tall/8 back. Will stock wire be long enough? 2003 America.THANKS JIM

A simple, rough formula to follow is to measure the increased height + 1/2 of the increased pullback that the new bars will give you. The result will be very nearly the additional cable and brake line that you may need. You may be able to subtract half the distance in width if that happens to be less than your starting point. Just at a glance you're thinking of adding 7" in rise alone so new cables will probably be in order as I don't think you can gain that much extra slack on a stock set.
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort. Herm Albright (1876 - 1944)

Jim, I got carlini supersweeps. 31 wide 9 rise and 10.5 pullback. All was sweet with the cables just had to re route the throttle cables down the right hand side but all is good.

Thinking about changing to T-bars myself. Whats the width from the center on the risers, or is that standard?
