hey guys, i have a 86 ls 650 savage, just buiolt solid struts and playing around with it. but i ordered some z bars that have a 6 inch rise. im thinking ill end of having to put new cables on, but does anyone know if i can get new cables at a regular auto parts store? pr will i have to get them from suzuki or aftermarket bike store?? thanks guys!!

You won't need new cables.  I have 8 inchers on mine with cable to spare.

If you had stock flat bars the cables are too short. If you had stock buckhorns you should have no problems with 8" TOTAL rise. If you have 8" bars on the later model drag bar risers, buy new cables, some light wire (stock harness is pathetically light) and some heat shrink butt connectors. Extending the harness is easy.

Always try your local independent shop for cables and hoses. My bike with 15" apehangers runs a Harley throttle cable, Kawasaki clutch cable and generic catalog sourced braided stainless front brake line. I extended the wiring myself, takes 1/2 an hour.

Or cheat and get hold of Lancer from this board. Barnett cable/hose supplier.

right on guys, i have the stock 3 1/5 inch risers, with the 6 inch z bars, should be a total of 9 1/5 inches, im waiting for the bars to get here and then ill find out, im pumped to put em on.
