Anybody know of a company where I can purchase some `short length` throttle and clutch cables for a Z1000 A1?....I'm running drag bars so need shorter than standard.

Also, due to the fact that my drag style `club foot` swing arm is way longer than standard but I am running a standard Z1000 rear brake cylinder assembly and calliper setup does anyone know of somewhere that would make, or I can buy, a longer length of brake hose to suit?

Cheers, Paul

Try Venhill, did me a one off rear brake hose for my special, will be using them for my fronts soon. They do throttle and clutch cables too. Crofty

I'm using drag straight bars on my z1000a2 and found z650 throttle and clutch cables were perfect.

Paul, get your arse and the bike down to Venhill and they will make cables and lines to suit, that way there is no guess work involved!
