My cable supplier sent me one (1) extra set of overlength Stainless Steel cables by mistake. Normally there would be a 3 week wait for custom-length cables, so here's an opportunity to get a set immediately.

Read carefully: These cables (both throttle & clutch) are +8" in length for the Speedmaster/T100, or +4" for the America. Measure carefully before calling me to order. Remember, I only have one set of these longer cables.

Racedweeb is selling them (he runs Bellacorse). I've got stock handlebars so I don't need them (already ordered a stock set along with the big bore) but I bet they's fit nicely on a set of Carlini bars.

Pete,

It must have been the batch that included your +8" cables that the manufacturer made an extra set. I didn't notice it until the other day.

Run down for others what you did to your bike in terms of bars and risers. It might inspire others.

Mike,
If stock cables are working, but tight, on my America with "'82 stock Buckhorns", then 4" over would be just right ,no? How much for the set? If the extra length is
enough I may be interested.

DMK,

Yep, 4" should be just right. Same price as stock length ($175).

Same as Aviator, for some reason a pile of bills arrived due in September. Plus the old heating oil thing. I may have to mortgage the house in order to heat the house. In lieau of that I'll be using the old standby ~ woodproducts. I'll be ordering a set of those +4" SS control cables sometime this winter.
