|  Where to get longer cables for the M I am experimenting again with different handlebars and tall risers and I need about 4 to 6 inches longer throtle cables, clutch cable, and brake line. Does anybody know of a place to order oversize cables that will fit? Perhaps someone has fit cables from another scoot and knows the right make/model that will net a longer cable on the M? I thought about making some custom cables but I'll still need a longer brake cable and if I can score all I'd rather do that.

| Thanks, these are a little steep. I can't bring myself to spend almost 200 in cables. Perhaps someone knows of another bike that has longer oem cables that I can use. I think I can find stock oem replacement cables much cheaper if I just knew how long the cables were. Something like this: http://www.sideroadcycles.com/Americ...ersCables.html which ones would work?

| I guess I'll check with the dealer, maybe they know what other bike cables would work for me. If that isn't helping I guess I'm going to order the cables.

 | Years ago we used to make our own cables. The bike shops sold inner and outter cable off a roll and had a range of fittings for the ends. Measure the length using stiff wire to get the bends and route right. Just keep the original adjusters. You might find a small manufacter of equipment that may make their own cables
