    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Cable Lengths?

My 450L project is getting a new, used set of E handlebars. My question is do I need to get shorter clutch and throttle cables or can I use the ones that I have?
 
You will probably need shorter cables, you may not. You may be able to take up the difference in roun=ting or just leave it "looped" out longer, I would suggest a set of "E" cables.

Some people will go to any lengths for cable. I still use a roof antennna.:)



Cable lengths on the bike? Take Dink's advice.

You can measure your need with a tape, but that can be tricky as you may not be certain in what position you will mount the new bars, and tilting them upwards or downwards by even an inch can make a difference if the cable length is limited. If you have extra length you run the risk of crimping the cable at some time. It is best to have it right.
