S4 throttle cable ???

my old S4 throttle cable was knackered so I got a new one in UK cant remember who from
but now near to final assembly and its too short by about 3cm in outer shroud and 1 cm in inner wire , have fitted it but cant close butterflys hmm now got to hunt out another cable

It will probably be usable on one of my other bikes M750 or 750ss

I know there are several variants of throttle cables around.

I fitted height/angle adjustable but more importantly, longer clip-ons on my 916 and the throttle cable was then too short (it was barely long enough before).

I found that the cable from (IIRC) an ST4 was the same thing but a couple of inches longer so works nicely.

I will bring this one back to UK on 12 July as a sample and use its to measure some at dealers or wemoto or go to venhill and get one made
