Need a throttle cable measurement please

I need a Honda throttle cable that has a housing length of 28".

If anyone has a 5th or 6th gen cable laying around to measure for me, please post up. Or if you know of a cross reference table online somewhere, point me to it!

Thanks!

28" dimension should be measured as defined in Motion Pro's diagram seen here:

I am looking for the "Pull" cable only, which looks just like the diagram, it has the long hex shaped adjuster barrel on it. I'm open to using a cable from any Honda, just has to be able to thread into CBR1000RR throttle tube.

:lurk:

How about just ordering one from Motion Pro?? :biggrin:

Because the Honda cables are about $15 cheaper! :excl: :cool:

Well, might be working on a 5th gen relatively soon. I'll see if I can get that measurement in the next couple of days

I'll check a F or a R cable maybe later tonight.

5th Gen Thottle return cable is 30.5 inches (measured plastic sleving only)- Hope this helps :biggrin:

That's the best news I've heard all day! If someone can confirm the dimension for the pull cable I'll be one happy camper!

Really? Or are ya messin with me?

Sorry Seb - was laughing at myself for going out to the garage and measuring one cable then going out again to measure the other!

Cables are still attached to throttle tube/switch gear. do you need them? yours for the cost of shipping. ( :blush: might be $$ from the UK though)

Shipping would be worth it if I could convince you to also throw in a few UK bike mags... I'll pay of course! PM inbound...

Sounds like you are set.

Yes, it looks that way. If it's not too much trouble, I wouldn't mind knowing what the F/R measure anyway. Something to file away in the VF/VFR info stash... :beer:

Forgot to update... I got the 5th gen cable from Red installed & it works a treat, pretty much perfect! :fing02:
