Default longer clutch cable?

anyone know what fits or where to get them for our bikes? i need to do the clutch soon and my clutch cable is far to short for my set up, and would like to do it all at once.

Motion Pro? TerryCable?

Fax them the OEM cable/housing lengths and what you want and I bet they either have one or can make one special order.

I know this is a 2 year old thread, but did you ever find a longer clutch cable? I just replaced mine and it annoys me that I have to route it behind the bars and it is quite kinked near the lever - it's just going to accelerate wear.

If longer cables aren't available, I was debating doing a dodgy modification to the engine side mount to "extend" it a bit and allow for a bit more slack in the cable. Opinions?

I bought 2 inch longer cables from moton pro, three inches would not be too much.

my final email with customer service -

Punk,

To order the cable, you will need to call in with your credit card and billing information. Just provide the part number and plus length and any one of us can get an order placed for you.

Toby

as for part number, its 03-0389 + 2 inches (atleast when i ordered, but that was june 09). phone number is (650)594-9600 (found on the website). and from what i remember i got mine in a week or something, not the 9-11 days stated. hope this helps.
