Hey all. I want to put a set of 16" ape hangers on my xvs650 and was just wondering if anyone out there can tell me where I can get a set of control cables made or where I can get a universal kit from? would prefer to buy in the U.K but if anyone knows of a cheaper option abroad I would go further afield.. would prefer stainless steel.

Just about anywhere that offers braided cables should be able to make you up a really nice set.

Thing is, you either go for cheap, or for good. The two are rarely good friends.

If your good with a solderig iron you could always cut the wires and extend them your self thus using the same plugs.

You can buy the bowden inner and outer casings to make up your own, alternatively these people are available

A tip, the barrel nipple that fits in to the throttle tube may need the outside edge filing off a little so it fits correctly
