They are only about 3" difference. Can anybody tell me which bike has the longest tack cable??? (with stock ends) I really don't want to pay $50 for a motion pro custon cable that they had on the shelf for $17 a few years back. Anybody have one of theirs with the part number on it??? The stock 78F part ## was "02 043"..... Nightrider Nightrider Do not ride in front of me, I may not follow, Do not ride behind me, I may not lead, Ride beside me as a friend!!!

(that doesn't mean they didn't though ..).. I have a 4 year old Motion Pro catalog and theres no mention of extended tach cables for Hondas ... Its a rare case one would need an extended tach cable .. So I can't imagine them stocking them .. The number for the stock length cables for all SOHC 750s (not the A bikes though) from Motion Pro is 02-0043.. The easiest way to search this would be to find the length you need and compare. Using the measurement of just the outer casing (the black vinyl housing)... It'd be more likely to find different lengths of speedo cables than the tach cables .. and they have the same ends.. Build it the way you want it ..... then learn how to ride it like you own it.. www.lowridersbysummers.com

Thats on their web site right now!!! I have a "0043" in front of me, and it is longet than a stock from honda cable! I might have to use a speedo cable, been thinking about it.

It"s a little tight, I would like to add 2" making it 12", but, I've never seen a 12. Some-where I have a link to where they make a 6" extension for the cables, might have to go thay way???

The risres were on a stock frame of mine and needed 10" then!! As for total length I need, I'll have to dig out a tape and find out later!
