Did the throttle cables come as part of your kit or did you get them elsewhere? I've just put some Renthal bars on a K5 and I definately need longer cables. The ones off the naked bike are only fractionally longer and have different throttle tube ends, I've got them but before I change the throttle tube I thought I'd see if there is an alternative.

yes the longer cables came as part of the kit, pain to fit though.

Thanks, next question - where did you get the kit, obvious move is for me to contact them and see if they will do me just the cables. Cheers, RH

Just having problems fitting bars to my SV.

I bought Renthal Streetfighter bars because I'd read you didn't have to change any cables.. what lies! Ive also heard that renthal lows work, but there so similar to the streetfighters?!?
New throttle cables and front brake hose plus re-routing everything not through the forks (I don't think it'll pinch) is the only solution it seems.
http://www.speedycables.co.uk/ said they'd make a new set of throttle cables for me with an extra 2 inches for about £30 and I guess a new front hose is about £60

I have an SV650 N K6
