Harley controls, Break line and throttle cable

Ok so I bought a set of harley handlebar controls, I was wondering if anyone else has done this and how hard is it to hok up the throttle cable and the stock master cylinder break line? The electrical part is easy just the break line, throttle, and clutch cables are scaring me. Any help is appreciated thanx

Man, you really are turning that Police bike into a Harley aren't you? For the real authentic Harley effect, drill a very small hole in the bottom of the engine case. You will get that H-D puddle of oil every place you park.:side:

( No help on the handlebar controls, sorry)

Well, if those are for 1" bars and you have 7/8ths bars on your bike- it will be a very hard to fab piece indeed!

My Only question is why would you want the turn signals on each handle bar ? :unsure:

You're doing ther same thing as me, particularly the turnsignals on each side.

Your two biggest problems are mounting the 1 inch bars and the cables and lines (except for the electrical). They have different ends, and can be specially-made by different guys on various chopper sites.

The bars themselves will be relatively easy--just replace the risers for the 3/4 inchers with risers for the 1 inchers. These are available almost everywhere.
