so, on my cafe project I need shorter throttle and clutch cables BADLY. I was hoping I could either take them somewhere local and have them shortened, or use them as a referance to have new ones made up for a reasonable price. Anyone have any idea where I can accomplish this? I’d rather not attempt shortening them myself if I can avoid this.

There are a lot of custom cable places… I remember looking at them when I was making the E30 throttle cable.

They are not, however, local.

you don’t by chance remember any of them off hand do you? I only know of motion pro, and I’d have to call and spend over an hour on the phone describing my cables and hope they don’t make incorrect non-refundable cables.

One of the places i spoke to was a pretty small outfit, but I can’t recall who. I don’t think it’s THAT hard to DIY, though… you can buy the sweat on ends online. There are writeups.
