Is it possible to get a different length handlebar end choke cable, AN. list several different lengths of handlebar end throttle cables but only one choke cable. Would a throttle cable work?
I have fitted lower rise handlebars and now my choke cable isn't long enough, sounds odd, I know, but where it used to run nicely to the lever on the rise part of the bars, it now has to make a very tight turn back on itself, it will work in the very short term.
I asked my wife and she says I could do with a bit more length!!! :p
 
Cheers L.A.B. thats handy service to know but it ain't cheap.
Looking more closely at Andovers picture they show 06-0908 air cable handlebar end 24", was this standard fitment to all models?
It shows the adjuster on it which mine doesn't have, I wonder if mine is a bit of a hybrid, it's not much over 24" in total from carbs to lever.

Sounds about right, as it seems even the Hi-Rider choke lever was mounted fairly low down. I suppose if it was within reach then it was good enough.

I assumed the upper adjuster had always been fitted, leaving the carb top adjusters for fine slide adjustment, but perhaps not?
 
There are a number of different ways you can route the choke (and throttle) cables to vary the reveal at the bars.
