Default Bespoke Throttle Cables

Does anyone know where i can get some throttle cables made up for my bike? With the TL 1000 clip-ons there's loads of excess hanging off and it looks ugly. I'm after getting a shorter set made up if anyone knows of someone who does it?
Regards

Si.

I'm needing some longer cables. Would a suzuki dealer not be able to get them?

If you have an SV with clip ons you don't need bespoke cables - you need the cables from a faired SV which has...

Clip ons!

Suzuki dealers won't supply cables longer than those which fit their standard bikes, in this case the longest they will have is cables for a naked.

But yours is a curvy, won't they be different? I'd want to get new ones anyway so they will last as long as possible. But cheers for the offer

Was in the local suzuki dealer today asking about naked cables. They are different and can't be swapped between naked and faired bikes
