I've been looking around for awhile and I was trying to decide which handlebars to swap to, since I have what is known as "kiddy arms", or "T-Rex arms". I have decided to try out the Khrome Werks 2+2.

Anyway, my question is; do I need any cable or wiring extensions to make it fit on my 2014 Tri Glide Ultra? I would like to gather everything I need before my buddy and I start tearing it apart in his workshop. I have tried searching for the answer, but am unsuccessful in finding it.
 
I didn't need them on my '15 Freewheeler, but I bought the wiring extension just to make it easier. Clutch was no issue, had to rotate the banjo fitting on the brake just a tad. Didn't have to loosen it enough to even need bleeding.
 
Ok. Thanks for the reply, although I'm not sure if the freewheeler and the triglide have the same length wiring. I was probably going to run the controls outside the bar like it comes stock, if that makes a difference.
 
I put 2+2 narrow sweepers on my 2018 and I didn’t need anything, you may have to snip some zip ties to give a little slack, but overall it was very easy, and I’m know where near the mechanic that most of these guys are
 
I also have a 2014 and chose the LA Choppers 12” chrome Grande Twin Peaks - 1-1/2” diameter.

I do a lot of my own work, but while I had my TriGlide apart for new paint last winter, my Indy came to my house and did them for me.
The cables are still fine up to 12”, but would certainly need new cables for anything taller.

You will simply just cut some of the tie wraps, and pull and manipulate new positioning.

Thanks for all the replies. I knew on the later models, you don't need to extend anything up to 12. I wasn't sure about the 2014 though, as there was conflicting info out there and I am glad that somebody with a 2014 was able to respond.

Thanks again.

PS.
Beautiful bike, that red really pops.

You’re quite welcome & thank you!
FYI: now is a good time to add heated grips! (Never thought I’d use them as much as I do!!)
