Sportster Cables / Handlebar Kits

What Is In This Collection

Extended-length clutch and throttle cables, brake lines, and the handlebar install kits, wiring and harness extensions and electrical connectors that go with fitting aftermarket bars, for the Sportster.

Sportster Fitment

Sportster covers '57-'22 - XL883, XL1200, Iron, Forty-Eight, Roadster and Nightster. The air-cooled XL is cable throttle. The liquid-cooled RH Sportster is a different motorcycle and does not share these parts - see RH Sportster.

Years that change what fits:

• 2004 - the Sportster moved to a rubber-mounted frame, which changes a great deal of chassis hardware.
• 2007 - fuel injection replaced the carburetor across the range.

How Much Extra Do You Need

Kits are sold by how much rise they accommodate over stock, so measure the actual rise difference rather than going by the bar's advertised height. Pullback changes the cable path too. Stock cables will usually stretch an inch or two without complaint; beyond that you get a brake line under tension at full lock, a clutch that will not fully disengage, or wiring pulled out of a connector. Throttle-by-wire bikes need the wiring extension rather than throttle cables.
