My friend has a 71 honda cb750 and he just got his broomstick bars from dennis kirk. i was helping him run wires and what not but the brake and clutch cables are way too long for his new bars. His old bars were a mild ape hanger style and I think the cables and wires were made longer for the new bars. Is there a way to shorten them or just go by new lines?

If the cables are too long to route safely with the new bars, shorter replacements are your only option.
