Re: source for long clutch cables?

I put ape hangers on a 76 CB550 a few years ago and I couldn't find any long cables for that bike anywhere. I found a cycle shop in sioux falls that just took my old cables and made them as long as I wanted, was cheaper than new cables anyways. Im not sure where your from but im sure you can find something local just call around to the chopper shops or something, they mess with that stuff alot.

Re: source for long clutch cables?

For a use as a clutch cable go to a MX shop and see what they have. Moto man has a pretty good selection. For a hand brake use a bike cable. I'm sure you know of a decent bike shop in the area.

i already got a bicycle cable, but at this length it's know for it strechiness, a clutch cable would give a more of a solid feel.
