    GS1100g Speedo Cable

    On the OEM cable...the inner shaft is too long for the mini speepo I just got in the mail last night.

    It's a Drag Specialties 1 7/8" speedo.

    Are there any other options for cables? I have been looking at an 83 gs1000e cable but it looks different on the speeod housing at the wheel...but the inner cable looks short enough...anyone replace this one?

    how much too long is it? can you not just file off a bit of the inner cable where it goes into the speedo?

          Ahhhh, thought about that too...but the screw on cap only goes so far before it just stops and won't screw on the back of the speedo.

            so shave a bit off the top of the screw cap!!!!!!!!
            sorry mate cant think of any other way. its a PITA trying to find a cable that will fit unless you go to a local dealer and rummage through all the cables until you find one which will fit
