Is there a longer clutch cable for sale somewhere?

It fits easily in terms of length, but it just seems bent at the wrong angle.

I see what you mean. It does look odd and unnatural because of the steel tubing. I wonder if the naked clutch cable has the same curvature.

Am I right assuming the switch boxes have to be re-routed as well instead of going round the shocks?

Oh, and one more thing ... How are you supposed to fit the brake fluid reservoir?

Thanks for all the advice

What I did was, use the original bracket and screw, drilled and tapped the bars with a M5 thread, if I remember correctly.

I have the ABM kit from Matt before he CNC`d his own stuff , the Clutch cable was moved in the frame to suitable position and came direct out of the frame and into the clutch , no wrapping it through forks or anything . The 90 degree tube for the cable shroud was angled downwards . Brake reservoir on mine was just screwed direct to the brake perch on my bike , no bracket required . I have replaced the Clutch Cable recently due to the miles I have done and decided to buy one from a Naked SV , cost me about £15 for an original Suzuki one and they are not that much longer to be honest , I could have just ordered a normal one and it would have still done the job .

Got another one for you!

Inside each switch box there is a small plastic nipple that has a corresponding whole on each clip-on. Did you removed the nipple or did you drill a whole in the bars? If the later, how did you measure the correct angle?
