orb1998 Posted June 11, 2010 Posted June 11, 2010 Can anyone help... I am after the length of the Exup cables for a YZF750 Mine are missing off my bike and i want to make some new ones but require the length end to end, sorry forgot to add i have the outer cables but its the inner length i'm after many thanks in advance
craig88 Posted June 24, 2010 Posted June 24, 2010 are you still after the length or have you found it i can remove and measure one of mine if you still need it! thanks
orb1998 Posted June 24, 2010 Author Posted June 24, 2010 No not found the length yet so if you wouldn't mind taking your cables off to measure them i would really appreciate the inner cable lengths Many thanks in advance
orb1998 Posted July 14, 2010 Author Posted July 14, 2010 Anyone help please... still in need of the exup cable lengths from end to end as i have nearly sorted my bike to get it back on the road and this is the last info i need and have looked everywhere Cheers
chris66 Posted July 22, 2010 Posted July 22, 2010 i inquired about having some made as the originals are stupidly expensive a while back . i contacted a cable manufacturer and was told that because of the heat involved at the exhaust end that they couldnt be made using the usual solder method can i ask how you intend to make yours as i ended up giving up and paying for originals,
orb1998 Posted July 23, 2010 Author Posted July 23, 2010 I intend to use cable and screw on cable ends, i have seen it done in a couple of forums(a company called venhill have cables and ends, i have used cycle brake cables and had some ends made at work). I have tried the brazing and solder methods and due to capillary action the solder runs onto the cable, so screw type os the way forward. I have all the bits to make the cables now i just require the cable lengths...... i no the legnth for several other bikes after doing a rake loads of searching but not for a YZF750, i was given a dimensions from someone but this was too short. As soon as i have the info i will post it for all !!!! Just need the legnths!!!!!!!!
chris66 Posted July 24, 2010 Posted July 24, 2010 you obviously know for me to measure mine would be a big pain, tank off bottom fairing and exup cover, but i have got yamaha technical number they are very helpful even for older bikes and if they dont know they will find out and ring you back. they dont open weekends 01932358000 hope this helps, chris
orb1998 Posted July 25, 2010 Author Posted July 25, 2010 No problems thanks for that but i contacted a guy on ebay that turned out to be a breakers and they have measured them, so thanks to him i now have cables for a grand cost of less than a fiver The cable length for a YZF750r 1995 is 62 cm or 620mm hope this helps !!!!!!!
chris66 Posted July 25, 2010 Posted July 25, 2010 sorry i couldnt be more help, i have been working on my bike for months and finished it in may. i really did not fancy stripping it again after i have it running perfectly. i bet your bike is a new beast with the exup working, it makes such a difference to the low to middle power if you set it up properly. realy glad you got it sorted. chris
