Longer throttle cables

Just fitted a new top yoke n USDs to my Fireblade fighter. As expected, I need new cables. How much longer should I go ? 50mm would just do it with adjusters fully in , at their shortest. Was thinking 75mm longer would give me a bit more leeway. Can you go too long? Anybody besides Venhill do em. Dunno id Blackbird or Hornet cables would fit? Do venhill supply the adjuster and the 90 degree curved ends?

How much did you pay for the top yoke for the streetfighter look bud?? Who does them new? A mate is looking at doing one but cant see nowt on ebay

Cheers

Simon

My MFW, professionally made one was a eBay bargain for £92. There are other pro ones for between £150 and £300. I am selleng my modded RRW one on eBay at the moment;not pretty , but it could be made so with a bit of work?

If you want I can measure up BBird cables for you.

Most bike shops should have kit cables goodies to make you what you need.

I'd really like pre soldered cables from somewhere like Venhill if I can afford em. Had one pull off a clutch once, don't wanna get stuck!
Measuring up Blackbird cables would be great Baza thanks. Any chance of some pix of the ends as well? Cheers mate!

I could prolly do better than that, as long as it starts, its been in storage since I got the blade, where do you live, I have in the back of my head that it's crawley.
If no good I can do pics for you what do you want them of exactly (I have bar risers on the BB BTW so cables are tight)

Sorry mate, it's Hellrazzer that lives in Crawley. I live near Rye! Best just to check inner and outer lengths first please mate
I could do with pix of the ends and the adjusters . If I can buy proper Honda, soldered cables that would be perfect, thanks

Honda's throttle cables pull/push are almost identical at the twistgrip end, the length varies accordingto the model. Blackbird and VFR models are strong possibility. Need Zedhead to confirm the birds wheelbase

Ok, I will sort some pics out for you and measure the cables over the next couple of days.

I new someone was in crawley

Hopefully the blackbird cables will be good, but bike shop cable kits will have soldered and screw type nipples depending on their sizes

also look at X11 cables.

Thanks gents!

Mate has just got a front end with top yoke and extended cables can get them measured for you if still required just pm me and will send details, least it will be a spot on measurement off a streetfightered rry.

That would be perfect Simon, thanks. Where did he get the cables from and did he cut em to length and attach the end nipples?

Sorry spoke too soon the cables have been chopped so if he want to make it a streetfighter he will have to do same as you. Got a nice top yoke with renthal bars ect. Have you had any luck getting sorted?
