Strong clutch cable

With my uprated clutch in the R1 the 1.5mm cable(throttle size) looks too weak.Where has anyone found a source of 2mm or 2.5mm cables and outer sheath for this application? Thanks Winston

Try Vehicle Wiring Products

Scroll down the page a bit to wire No 3 (2.159mm) or wire No 4 (2.642mm)

Are you running a short straight clutch cable with the actuator arm turned round to pull towards the pedal, or it is in the stock position so you need a cable that has to go round a 270 degree bend to get into the correct position?

Picture / thousand words etc....



Link to a bigger version of the same pic

This is how Rich Miles' did his on the R1 Striker, you can just see on the right the actuator turned around on its splines. Mines very similar with a cable outer bracket on my lower engine mount, but my clutch pedal is bottom pivot so the cable can be even straighter.
