KZ250 clutch cable length

04 Jun 2014 14:46

First post here, so very sorry if it's in the wrong section. I have a kz305 csr that I'm giving a Cafe treatment to, and I need a shorter clutch cable due to having clip-ons on the bike now. I attempted to shorten the stock cable on my own, and that didn't work out so well... So I'm wondering if maybe the 250 clutch cable could work, since I'm having a way easier time finding them online than the 305 cables.
Any info is helpful, thanks!

Hello, Jbeck, and WELCOME to KZr! :cheer:

Could give Z1E a call about availability of a shorter clutch cable from some other model.

Thanks Patton. I'll try contacting them about it!

If no where turns up a cable that will work, does this seem like a good solution? www.venhillusa.com/venhill-universal-mot...lutch-cable-kit.html
I can solder, and making one from this kit seems easier than modifying a stock cable.

A ready-to-install custom-made cable may be available from MotionPro for not much more expense.

Good Fortune! :)
