drkstr:
16" apes require 10"+ over. So, I would assume 4"-5" over for 10" apes.

i could have sworn that some people did 12's with no cables? you would probably need a new brake line but i think you could maybe just re route cables and there will certainly be enough wiring

I have done 16's and only replaced the brake line. As long as you don't mind your wires and cables running down your bars and behind the tripe tree instead of looping in front of it. I actually think it looks cleaner, but that's just one dummies opinion. Mine are +3 and the only reason I did that was I found stainless ones on eBay for real cheap. Good luck!

I have to call ya on that one  ... there is no way stock length cables will work with 16" apes... tried it... unless you got a cable stretcher or somethin  ... got any close up pix of that?

Everything stock, but the brake line. It don't look the best, but it is able to be done.
+3 looks A LOT cleaner - In my opinion. |
