Hey folk`s! I am going for ape-hangers on my BA . 19" straight up! Then of course I need complete cable-set (about 60 cm. longer than standard). Anyone who know where I can get this kind of cables?

I don't have any info about the cables, but here in Florida Ape Hangers that tall will get you a ticket. I can't remember exacly, but handlebars either 15" or 19" above the seat is illegal. Generally they only enforce it during bike events when there are lots of bikes around, or rather lots of bikes from out of town/state.

Contact Mike Selman at BellaCorse/Sel-motion if you are in the States. Hed can sort you out. Don't have his contact info, but you can Google Bella Corse Triumph.

Run a search here for cables, there was a thread no long ago that mentioned some places that will custom make cable to any length you like.
As for the apehangers themselves, Harley uses the same diameter bars on most of their bikes, so you should be able to get what you are looking for in nearly any custom bike shop.
