New Bars - Help!

$

Ok so I bought some new bars and this has turned into a MUCH bigger job than anticipated. Brake line for sure needs to be lengthened. Mine has a soft line that mounts to the frame and a hard line up to a soft line again to the master cylinder on the handle. Easiest way to do this? Also clutch cable is too tight if I turn to the right, doesn't seem like a big job but how bad is it? I've rebuilt carbs, rear ends, top ends, lift kits on trucks, hub bearings etc. should I be able to do it? Lastly, the wiring. I cut the wiring between the riser and each control set because it clearly won't reach inside or outside of the bars. Since I'm this far I figure ill take the time and go through the bars. Question is, the "extension" kits for wiring seem like pieces of wire with a connector on the end for $50. If that's the case I can use my own wire I have and hook it all back up right? Help me here ready to ride as the bars feel so much better!! 1999 1200 custom. Looks like it is the stock riser and drag bars that I had on there. Ill post pics, they look sweet with the Z bars. Thanks!
