cable length
« on: August 11, 2008, 06:44:52 pm »
I have a 79 cb 650 and was wondering if I go to drag bars or clubmans will I need shorter cables or would stockers work?

Shorter cables are certainly nice if its a route easily afforded. I just rerouted my cables to accomodate the clubmans on my 750k, worked like a charm.

Cable length on the 79 cb650 is fairly hard to judge, my clutch cable was a real pig to thread until I repositioned the stock handle bars and then it worked perfectly.
I guess as long as you are poking the cables out towards the front of the bike it should work out OK as there isn't that much extra to play with.
