metric man · 08-21-2008

I own a 900 classic and want to put ape hangers on it . What size bars riser clamps are on the stock bike? what is the rule of thumb when it comes to the cable length. .5" for every 1"?

1" stock bars or 1" extra cable for ape hangers

I put 13 inch apes on my 900 lt with 4 inch pullback risers and i put 6 inch over stock length braded cables on it .i rerouted the cables a little differant than stock and it worked like a charm.

I have 18" apes on my 900 classic. 16" bars on top of 2" risers. i believe i went with a +8" on all my lines when i went stainless.

Rule of thumb for cabling is add 1" of cable for every additional inch of rise and add .5" inch of cable for every additional inch of pullback.
