Default Throttle routing on a 2009 KLX250 for the Mikuni TM36-68 carb

Anyone running a 2009 or later KLX with a Mikuni 36-68 pumper with the stock cable? I am at the point of routing the throttle cable. Can it run under the tank across above the cam cover with the stock cable? I have it routed there, but may be tight when turning right. Any help with cable routing is appreciated. I have a cable kit to make a new cable, but it seems the stock cable is close to working. I know the pre-09 had to have a longer cable, but don't know about this setup.

I'm cross posting in the ADVrider KLX250 thread in the thumpers sub-forum asking the same.

I had Motion-Pro make an extended cable for me because I use 2" bar risers.

At $110 for a cable Motion Pro was a non-starter, since I can make a cable from a $16 kit. I just hate cutting up the stock cable to do the job... but probably will have to, to get that little plastic fitting that fits into the throttle housing.

Bummer. Thanks anyway.
