New member from Texas!
14 Mar 2016 05:35
Hello all. I just recently bought a 1980 kz440B one owner bike with 3k miles on it. The bike needed a little work but is now road worthy with the exception of a front brake cable, which seems impossible to locate. This is my first Kz, but I have 6 other bikes and have been riding since I was about 12years old. Great site!

$45 a little steep but being a brake cable and the front one, I'd rather pay a little more and know I can stop.

I just paid 50 bucks for a OEM clutch cable to replace the 17 dollar motion poo back up cable I have :pinch:
I'm not sure if your cable is available through Kawasaki, I'm sure you checked.
If you still have the outer casing a lot of shops will make the cable with new ends for pretty cheap
