TheAlchemist Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Hi All, Getting my way through my project very slow!! Can someone please measure the lengths of their throttle cables. I have been told the GSXR1000 K1-K4 have the length I need so just need to check before I buy. Many thanks, Andy Quote Link to comment
DAZ Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 @clivegto maybe able to help you out (he's building a 10/4 ) but it's a bit too new for this section Quote Link to comment
clivegto Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Haven't got 1000k1/2/3/4 throttle cables but what I do have is hayabusa MK1 throttle cables which I'm presuming are the same. Outer sleeves appear to be about 670mm long. Quote Link to comment
TheAlchemist Posted February 3, 2023 Author Share Posted February 3, 2023 Thank you for your replies. I have TLR cables at the moment, just the visible black sleeve from the adjuster to the anchor nipple is 19" long for pull and 20" long for push. I am looking for 3-4" longer per cable. Is your dimension of 670mm from the cable nipple to the adjuster or only the visible black sleeve. Many thanks, Andy Quote Link to comment
clivegto Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 670mm outer cable, look at the pictures. Quote Link to comment

TheAlchemist Posted February 3, 2023 Author Share Posted February 3, 2023 Hi Clive, I have looked at the pictures. What I can see and what is written down does not add up, so I thought I would ask the question. Thank you for your help, I just needed to check that all the pictures were the same but just a closeup of each end and the tape had not been moved. so I can see from your pictures 670mm -135mm is the overall length of the black sleeve, So 535mm and not 670mm this is only 21" long. Hoping the Busa MK1 cables are not the same as the GSXR1000 K1 or these will also be to short. Thanks for your reply though, I would like to be more thorough than make a mistake. Kind regards, Andy Quote Link to comment
coombehouse Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Don't know if this is of any help. The dimensions come from wemotos website & are normally accurate. Gsxr1000 will be very similar Gsxr600k2 throttle cable pull Outer Cable Is 72 cm Inner Cable Is 81.5 cm Throttle push Outer cable 71cm Inner cable 83cm Quote Link to comment
TheAlchemist Posted February 5, 2023 Author Share Posted February 5, 2023 Thank you very much, I have ordered a set of cables, I will confirm when they arrive. Andy Quote Link to comment
TheAlchemist Posted February 8, 2023 Author Share Posted February 8, 2023 Cables arrived so I have taken a picture of the TLR and GSXR cables along side each other. Yes the GSXR cables are longer. All adjusters are in line with each other so you can easily compare sizes. Hope this helps someone out if you are going to flat bars etc. 3 Quote Link to comment
